Alexander Isak is insisting on Newcastle and drawing for Liverpool, but so far Eddie Howe's side plays hardball and will not easily separate with their star stiker
Alexander Isak has “poor” his transfer situation, but Newcastle -Baas Eddie Howe can be forced to sell him because of the team. That is the image of former Scotland and Rangers Frontman ally McCoist who is not impressed by Isak's behavior this summer.
The Swedish Hitman wants to force a move to Liverpool and told Magpies Top Brass that he wants from St James' Park. Isak, 25, left for Spain for training without informing how to inform from a Dijstam while the rest of the team was in the Far East for training for the season.
McCoist said: “I think he acted badly. Not all players, but some players and people forget that if you sign a contract, you are clearly happy with his contract.
“You cannot sign a contract with the intention to do it right, throw away the toys and demand a move. You can't do that. If you sign a contract, you must say: 'I am here for three years, four years and that I will honor that contract.
“You sign it because you are happy with it. I think he has been poor. You can't behave that way. The only set of supporters you don't let it be fans of Newcastle. It's hard to argue with them.”
Liverpool has failed with an £ 110 million bid for Isak, because they want to further strengthen this summer. The Reds are not willing to make a second bid until they receive some encouragement from Newcastle that they are willing to negotiate.
Howe has tried to bring in a potential replacement for Isak, but failed in an attempt to sign Benjamin Sesko, who ended up in Manchester United. However, TNT Sports Pundit McCoist feels that Howe might have to let him go to make the team better if Isak may be a problem if he stays.
He said: “Eddie should show strength, but the most important thing he has to do what is good for the team and the club. We may think that leadership Eddie is going,” good, get fit and come back in this team, “but that may not be the best for Newcastle.
Should Newcastle Alexander Isak cash in? Say in the commentary part.
“We can say that he has not been strong enough, but what he actually does is perhaps the best for Newcastle. Eddie could say to the owners:” I know you want £ 150 million, I now tell you that he will be a problem if he comes back to the dressing room so that you have to do something. “
“He could say:” I will not say this publicly, but I don't want him back in the dressing room because he will cause problems. “We don't know how Eddie thinks.
“He has to do what is best for the team and the club in the future. That may accept £ 20 million less. But I don't know the situation. I don't think Isak has treated it well.”
