Alexander Isak’s future at Newcastle United is uncertain as fresh interest from abroad sparks speculation over a potential summer move.

Newcastle are beaten 4-0 by Celtic in their first pre-season fixture, with striker Alexander Isak left out of the Magpies squad.

According to talkSPORT, Newcastle United do not plan to part ways with their Swedish forward Alexander Isak in the current transfer window.

Newcastle believe patience is required and, while they have already had to recalibrate after failing to secure top targets, the interim transfer team — driven by Andy Howe, the assistant head of recruitment and Eddie’s nephew, and Steve Nickson, the head of recruitment — are continuing to pursue multiple deals across several positions.

One of the biggest transfer dominoes of the summer has fallen, with Liverpool reportedly making an approach to Newcastle United for superstar striker Alexander Isak.
