Alexander Isak Won’t Play Against Liverpool but Still Has Newcastle Future, Howe Says
- Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe confirmed striker Alexander Isak will not be part of the squad for the upcoming Liverpool game on Monday night.
- Isak's absence follows his public statement midweek expressing discontent with Newcastle over broken promises about an agreement to allow his transfer amid Liverpool's interest.
- Howe described the situation as challenging and less than ideal for everyone involved but emphasized that there are no personal conflicts between him and Isak, who has been training separately from the first team.
- Isak netted 23 goals last season, placing him just behind Mohamed Salah in the Premier League’s goal-scoring rankings, and Howe expressed his full support for the striker’s return to Newcastle.
- Howe remains optimistic that an agreement with Isak can be reached and is keen to see the striker return to Newcastle, although the approaching September 1 transfer deadline leaves uncertainty about what lies ahead for the player.
