Newcastle United\u2019s striker Alexander Isak didn\u2019t join the squad in their pre-season tour. Earlier, it was said to be because of the thigh injury he sustained, but Fabrizio Romano confirmed that the player is searching out for new clubs. Liverpool despite signing Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt for \u20ac95 million, remain very much interested in the PL striker and could make a move soon. Isak is open to leave. It\u2019s now depends on Newcastle whether they will open doors for him to exit. Liverpool also can buy Isak if they sell Luis Diaz in this window.<\/p>\n
Newcastle United\u2019s star striker Alexander Isak has been notably absent from the club\u2019s pre-season tour, initially reported to be due to a thigh injury. However, transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has now confirmed that the Swedish forward is actively exploring opportunities with other clubs.<\/p>\n
Despite recently completing a big-money move for Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt for \u20ac95 million, Liverpool remain keen on signing Isak. The Reds see the 24-year-old as a top attacking option and could make a move in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
Isak, who netted 21 goals in all competitions last season, is reportedly open to leaving St. James\u2019 Park this summer. The final decision, however, rests with Newcastle United, whether they choose to cash in or retain one of their prized assets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
