Alexander Isak arrived alone at Newcastle United’s Benton training ground on Wednesday afternoon — hours after his teammates had left and missed a scheduled family event arranged by head coach

Alexander Isak is having to train away from his Newcastle team-mates in the afternoon amid continued interest from Liverpool, who are in negotiations to see more players exit Anfield

Isak did not travel with his team-mates on their pre-season trip to Singapore and South Korea, ostensibly because of a minor thigh injury, after Liverpool, who subsequently tabled a £110million bid for him, let it be known they remained interested in acquiring his services.
