Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak continues to be linked with a move to Liverpool.

Shortly after his inclusion, he turned to Instagram to drop a bombshell statement around his situation.

Isak, who didn't feature in Newcastle's Premier League opener against Aston Villa last weekend, said that 'change is in the best interests of everyone and said his relationship with the club cannot go on.

In response to Isak's social media statement, Newcastle hit back at the former Real Sociedad man and revealed that "no commitment" has ever been made by a club official for him to leave this summer.

With Isak's future uncertain, Liverpool Echo has taken a look at the latest around his potential move to the Reds...

The saga around Alexander Isak's proposed move to Liverpool is showing signs of an ending with Chronicle Live reporting that the Sweden international could be about to finally get his wish.

It's reported that, as Newcastle have a player that doesn't want to be there, is on £120,000 per-week and training alone, all roads are pointing to an exit from St James' Park for the former Borussia Dortmund man.

Newcastle's main backers Public Investment Fund (PIF) will see that Isak is not contributing on the pitch and not selling shirts off, meaning a departure is 'getting closer' and the most feasible outcome at this stage.

Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe spoke in length about Alexander Isak's future in his press conference on Friday morning.

Just the outside perception is one that is totally different to normal.

"The club has to act in the best interests of Newcastle United.

It looks like it is coming to an end, or it will come to an end pretty quickly and then we can focus on the football again."

Liverpool have been handed a potential boost in their hopes of signing Isak before the end of the window, with Newcastle reportedly making progress on a potential replacement.

According to the Express and Star, the Magpies are pushing hard to sign Wolves striker Jurgen Strand Larsen and have agreed personal terms with the player.

If Newcastle get close to paying that, then income from any sale of Isak would more than cover the cost.
