Eddie Howe Casts Fresh Doubt over Alexander Isak Future After Rejected Liverpool Bid - Liverpool Echo
NEWCASTLE, ENGLAND, AUG 3 – Newcastle manager Eddie Howe demands striker Alexander Isak prove commitment after missing pre-season amid Liverpool's rejected �110 million bid, with team unity prioritized.
- On August 2, 2025, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe addressed Alexander Isak's future following Liverpool's rejected £110 million bid in Seoul.
- Newcastle swiftly declined the offer because Isak, a 25-year-old striker, missed the club's Far East preseason tour and has not contacted Howe.
- Isak has trained alone at his former club Real Sociedad's facilities in Spain and is expected to return to Newcastle's training base this week.
- Howe emphasized that Isak must "earn the right to train with us" and noted no further bids have come from Liverpool as far as he knows.
- Isak’s absence may affect his reintegration since he faces a fitness assessment and must demonstrate the right attitude to rejoin Newcastle’s squad.
