Everyone involved in the football world is eagerly awaiting every update on a situation that could result in a player moving for a British record transfer fee.

Newcastle’s stance was clear, they immediately rejected it and still do not want to see.

They will reluctantly sell if a suitable replacement was lined up to replace Alexander Isak, and if the striker forced through an exit.

Now, news of a bid submitted for Benjamin Sesko from Newcastle today has thrown fresh optimism into the picture, with Alexander Isak becoming a Liverpool player this summer an ever-increasing reality.

Alexander Isak did not join up with Newcastle on their South Korea pre-season tour, as he instead opted to train alone at his previous club Real Sociedad’s training centre.

A decision he took to separate himself from the noise amid ongoing uncertainty surrounding his future.

Keith Downie for Sky Sports has now revealed that Alexander Isak is due back in Newcastle today following his personal training camp in Spain.

A convenient time to return given Newcastle’s Sesko bid today.
