Newcastle United are adamant Alexander Isak will not be allowed to leave despite the striker going public with his desire to depart this summer, claiming promises have been “broken” and “trust is lost”.

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.

Only hours after Alexander Isak publicly bashed Newcastle United for “broken promises” and declaring the “relationship can’t continue,” the Magpies fired back at their star striker, adding another chapter to one of the biggest transfer sagas of the summer.
