Alexander Isak transfer news: Liverpool target breaks silence to declare he 'can't continue' at Newcastle

Newcastle deny giving Alexander Isak a commitment he could leave this summer as the striker pushes for a move to Liverpool and say they do not foresee the player being sold as the conditions required for them to sanction a sale are unlikely to transpire in the final weeks of the window

So the story goes; Paul Mitchel arrived and ripped up his new contract and uber pay-rise.

...................One could argue Isak's somewhat justified.

One of if not the biggest wnaker ever in my book..

Newcastle should fcuk him.over and keep him but their fans probably would never want to see the cnut in a black and white shirt ever again.

Should he go to Liverpool, and ever play against Newcastle, I genuinely think he could get the most hostile reception ever seen in the PL.

Don’t make promises to players you can’t keep and they won’t go on strike.

I’d be pretty fucking unhappy if my bosses told me they’d do something and they’d refused to live up to the bargain.

Why should I then fulfill my end? Personally I think he should do the bare minimum of his job and not strike, but I can see why he’s decided to tell them to fuck themselves.

Don’t lie to people and you won’t get this happening.

Do you think the "promise" stated that Isak could go to any club of his choosing, and said club could set the price?? If not, he can fuck off
Liverpool have to pay the money Newcastle want, and they'll let him go. I think he's worth the £140-£150 mill they want, so if they're not willing to pay, tough shit.

The promise was he would get a new contract with higher pay. He didn’t receive that. That’s why he’s pushing for this.

Apparently it was all agreed with the Staveley woman and then she left so it was left up in the air.

He's not the first person whose bosses broke a promise. He won't be the last. He's just acting like a child.

I hope they keep him. Wanna see what happens!

They're still open to deal.

Pool will need to stump up heavy for him tho.

I really don't understand why they had to stitch up Newcastle for the Ekitike deal, I thought when their interest was declared it was smoke and mirrors to advance the Isak deal, then they announced him and I thought he was the alternative, then it turns out Liverpool STILL want Isak? Did they really just spend £82m on a backup striker? In all likelihood if they let Newcastle get Ekitike it would have been Isak turning out for Liverpool vs Bournemouth on Friday, the whole saga is just utterly bizarre to me, if the plan is for Ekitike to be depth was there really no one else out there at £82m that could do that job so they could let him go to Newcastle and speed along the Isak deal? They could have had Sesko for less.

Slott himself said he sees Ekitike as a player who can play wide through the middle.

Liverpool 'exits':

Nunez (ST)
Jota (ST)
Diaz (LW)

Why is it so odd that they bring in 2 attackers to replace them?

Money talks, and if Toon can get 120m+ for him, they'll take it imo.

Even now.

One also wonders what Ekitike thinks about all this
 
End of the day he should still be professional. He's still getting paid and going on strike since pre season till now, posting in social media on all these is just so baby (or Gen Z kinda thing?) . God knows how fit he is now. Another player ill-advised by agent as well it seems. So wasted.
