The future of Alexander Isak is in the balance with Liverpool who is still hunting the Newcastle striker, whose head was turned after their interest as he wants to push by a movement to Anfield,
Alexander Isak will “rumbl” in Liverpool because he has not done a Mega-Money Deal, it has been claimed that the future of the Newcastle striker stays in the air. Wantaway Toon -star Isak missed the Premier League opener of the Magpies in Aston Villa on Saturday, while he continues to insist on a move to Anfield.
The 25-year-old trained from the first team of the Toon after he had been the tour of the club through Asia. Isak has also stated that he will no longer play for Newcastle, but Toon -Baas Eddie Howe has kept the possibility of a return to his line -up open.
The first bid of Liverpool of £ 110 million for the player was quickly rejected and they still have to return with an improved offer. It is understood that Newcastle likes to come in new strikers before he is considering leaving Isak.
The Swede was closed by fans of the club about his attempt to force the issue, because they seemed to focus on a singing of “There is only one greedy b ******” on him during the scoreless draw in Villa Park. And former goalkeeper of Manchester United, Ben Foster, believes that Liverpool is partly the fault of the poisonous situation.
The ex-Wrexham-Shot stopper claims that the ruling Premier League champions played a role in encouraging Isak to kick a fuss through his agent. Foster said that the way Isak has treated the situation, the Reds makes his only option after he has burned his bridges on Tyneside.
Speaking at the Fozcast -Podcast Foster said: “He has to go to Liverpool, because I think that is probably the only team that will have him now.
“Isak is also going to mess, because someone from Liverpool has contacted his agent and is gone:” We want to hand you down a transfer request or give you a fuss and we will sign you. ” But they still haven't signed him.
“I think he should just take responsibility for it and he has to come up with a statement. He must be open and honest with people. Liverpool is also aware that he is ready in Newcastle. They will not really be willing to increase their offer.”
Anthony Gordon played like a false nine in Isak's absence against Villa, where Newcastle did not score. Offensive reinforcements remain a possibility before Deadline Day, with Yoane Wissa and Goncalo Ramos both on their radar.
In the meantime, Foster thinks that the hostility towards Isak of supporters in Newcastle will eventually force the movement. The former international in England described the Saga as “terrible” and called for a resolution to reach as quickly as possible.
He added: “Newcastle fans are different. This is in their blood and he has smeared them. He is in the mud, he is ready and he can never play for Newcastle again, but he has the required result.
“The club has seen that [fans chanting] At the end of the game and disappeared: “We just have to get it sold.” It is a terrible way to tackle it, but that is modern football and it is the way they go. “
