Eddie Howe has admitted that he has no idea what the future holds for Alexander Isak after Liverpool's failed attempt to sign him.
Newcastle have made it clear that Isak, who is desperate to join Liverpool, has a non-negotiable price tag of £150m.

Those in power at St James' Park have reportedly been left furious with the way Liverpool have handled the situation.
Isak, meanwhile, has travelled to Spain to prepare for the new season using Real Sociedad's training facilities.
Howe was quizzed for an update in the early hours of Saturday morning and said he did not know what would happen next.
"I was made aware of a bid yesterday and that it was turned down, all before I’d even heard about it," explained the Newcastle boss.
"People in England are dealing with the situation.
I can’t talk about other clubs, it's not for me to say."

It remains to be seen if Liverpool will go back in for Isak at a later date, with his future still very much up in the air.
It is not clear if he will return to training with the rest of his team-mates when they return to English shores next week.
Isak scored 27 goals in 42 appearances last season, helping Newcastle to win the Carabao Cup and book their place in the Champions League for the upcoming campaign.
