Alexander Isak believes his departure from Newcastle is “in the best interests of everyone” after breaking his silence on the transfer saga. Amid speculation about a potential move to Liverpool, Isak has expressed his desire to leave the Premier League club. The Swedish international has not featured in Newcastle’s pre-season or their opening game against Aston Villa, which ended in a 0-0 draw on Saturday. As last season’s second-highest goalscorer in the Premier League, Isak’s situation has drawn significant attention.
