Newcastle's pursuit of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko appears to have ended as Sesko has decided to join Manchester United instead. Isak, a Swedish international, has been a key player for the Magpies since joining from Real Sociedad in 2022, scoring 62 goals in 109 matches.
Isak's desire to leave the club remains strong, and his training situation is a reflection of this. Meanwhile, Liverpool's recent signing of Hugo Ekitike, who can also play as a No 9, may reduce the need for Isak. However, with Darwin Nunez potentially leaving for Al-Hilal, Liverpool may need to reconsider their bid for Isak or explore alternative options.
