Alexander Isak received a clear and public warning from Eddie Howe, the newcastle United coach, after his remarkable absence from the club's pre-season internship in Asia. Officially forfeit for a thigh injury, which ultimately revealed any lesion, the Swedish striker went to Spain to train in the Real Sociedad facilities, without informing his club. Behavior deemed unacceptable by Howe, who has declared since Seoul: “No player can expect to behave and train normally with the group. He must gain the right to return. »» The technician has not yet spoken to Isak since his return to Tyneside, and an update seems inevitable before any reintegration.
In the background, Isak pushes to join Liverpool, with whom he wishes to cross a course in his career. The Reds proposed an offer of 138 million euros, refused by Newcastle, which only envisages a departure at more than 160 million pounds and on condition of having secured its replacement. The Magpies are expecting a response from Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig), and also follow Yoane Wissa (Brentford) according to Thee. In the meantime, Howe remains firm: in Newcastle, “The collective comes before individuals”.
