Newcastle United head coach Eddie Howe has said striker Alexander Isak’s future will be decided by the club’s ownership..

Alexander Isak wants out at Newcastle but there has been a significant update on the club's pursuit of a replacement.

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe says the settling of Alexander Isak's future at St James' Park "has to be right for Newcastle". The 25-year-old striker is considering his future at the club amid interest from Premier League champions Liverpool.

Newcastle are interested in signing Nicolas Jackson as a possible replacement for Alexander Isak, talkSPORT understands. The Chelsea striker has been added to the club’s transfer shortlist.

Liverpool’s admiration for Isak isn’t new. The Swedish international has long drawn glances from Anfield, but recent developments have added real urgency. According to The Athletic’s David Ornstein, Isak recently asked not to travel with Newcastle’s squad on their pre-season tour — a move that rarely signifies contentment.

The 24-year-old Senegal international has been at Stamford Bridge since June 2023, with the Blues paying a £32m fee to sign him from Villarreal. It’s believed that Chelsea want around £50m in order to let Jackson leave the west London club, with the player under contract until 2033.

Eddie Howe admits that Newcastle United’s board “have a decision to make” when it comes to Alexander Isak’s future, but insists that whatever the outcome it must be in the best interests of the club.

Liverpool are looking to seal a blockbuster deal for Alexander Isak this summer, but as things stand, they won't be able to offer the Swede his two preferred squad numbers
