Liverpool’s pursuit of Alexander Isak has dominated headlines throughout August, with the Premier League champions making a substantial £110 million bid earlier this month that was swiftly rejected by the Magpies.

Newcastle’s position remains firm: they value Isak at £150 million and have publicly stated they “do not foresee” the conditions for a sale being met.

The situation has become increasingly volatile after Isak broke his silence on social media on August 19, releasing a damning statement that sent shockwaves through both clubs.

In his Instagram statement, the 25-year-old declared: “When promises are broken and trust is lost, the relationship can’t continue

That’s where things are for me right now – and why change is in the best interests of everyone, not just myself”

Isak has been training alone for over a month, working with a first-team coach at different times from the main squad to maintain his fitness.

The Swedish international will miss tonight’s clash against Liverpool.

And it looks like this evening could become a major point in this saga.

The iPaper are reporting that Newcastle United are braced for a bid from Liverpool for the 25-year-old after the clash this evening:

“Liverpool’s stance after the initial bid was rejected was that they would not bid again due to the strength of Newcastle’s rebuttal, Mark Douglas wrote.

“Again, the suspicion at St James’ Park is that position will not hold until 1 September, with Newcastle braced for a second bid, with all the fireworks that would set off, after Monday night.”

“Given the dwindling amount of time left in the transfer window, the odds are now stacked against any new offer being successful.”
