Newcastle coach Eddie Howe has not taken gloves by approaching the case of the Swedish international, strongly associated with Liverpool in recent weeks.
Priority target of Liverpool and eager to rally Anfield, Alexander Isak has not yet seen his situation settled. Indeed, officially, the Swedish striker is absent from the pre-season tour in Asia due to a thigh injury. However, he was seen in Spain in Zubieta, the Real Sociedad training center, a decision made without having informed his club.
In parallel, the Reds have already launched the maneuvers for its transfer, with a first offer of 138 million euros, to which would be added bonuses. A proposal declined by the Magpies board, according to The Athletic. For his part, the principal concerned found a verbal common ground with the champion of England for a six -year contract, until June 2031, according to Sky Germany.
Eddie Howe hardens the tone
Present in front of the press, Eddie Howe did not dodge questions about his star scorer. And the English coach was particularly firm concerning the behavior of Isak, which he did not hesitate to crop publicly.
“You must deserve the right to train with us. We are Newcastle United. The player is responsible here to be part of a team and a group, you must behave correctly. We will ensure that all players act to deserve the right to train with the group. No player can expect to behave in a bad way and to train normally with the group ”hammered the native of Amersham.
