Newcastle drop Isak from first team

Right after losing Benjamin Sesko to Manchester United, Newcastle continued to cause a stir when they issued internal disciplinary action against their main striker Alexander Isak.

Newcastle drop Isak from first team.

According to Sky Sports , the Swedish striker was asked to separate from the first team squad and train separately. This decision not only created more internal tension, but also put Isak's future at St James' Park into question, especially in the context of Liverpool closely following every development.

In fact, Liverpool once sent an offer of nearly 140 million euros to recruit Isak but was rejected by Newcastle. However, the latest disciplinary action of the North East English team is considered by experts as a turning point, which could pave the way for this "blockbuster" deal to be activated.

New coach Arne Slot is not satisfied with new signing Hugo Ekitike and is looking for a truly classy striker for the attack. Isak - with his speed, technique and intelligent movement - is considered the ideal piece for the attacking system that the Dutch coach is building.

Speaking at a recent press conference, coach Eddie Howe stressed: “No player can behave inappropriately and expect to return to training as normal.” This statement is believed to be aimed at Isak, who was rumored to be unhappy with the coaching staff after Newcastle missed out on Sesko.

Not stopping there, Sky Sports also revealed that Newcastle are targeting Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson as an alternative if they have to part with Isak. This move shows that the black and white striped team is ready for the scenario of the Swedish star leaving.

With the transfer market heating up, developments at Newcastle will certainly be closely watched. And if Liverpool are determined, Alexander Isak could well become the next valuable piece in the squad that Arne Slot is ambitiously rebuilding.
