The Premier League season may be underway, but for Newcastle United, their transfer saga with star striker Alexander Isak has yet to be resolved. After missing the preseason for the club, which Newcastle United said was due to injury, Isak's situation has escalated, with him speaking out on the matter for the first time.

Liverpool ’s hopes of signing Newcastle striker Alexander Isak have been handed a major boost. The Premier League champions saw an opening bid worth £110million rejected by Newcastle earlier this month and the Sweden international has since been exiled from the first-team squad.

Alexander Isak accused Newcastle United of breaking promises and misleading supporters in a social media statement on Tuesday that confirmed he wanted to leave the Premier League club.
