Eddie Howe has admitted that Alexander Isak’s Newcastle United future is not in his “full control”. The Sweden international has made clear he wants to leave the club this summer with Liverpool previously communicating their interest in a move for the 25-year-old.

Ashy agrees: "Alexander Isak is a Newcastle player and will remain a Newcastle player for the full coming season. Isak has not put in a transfer request so therefore he is a committed player for the Toon. Any player wishing to leave NUFC needs to inform the club at the beginning of the transfer window."
