Alexander Isak Training at Former Club Amid Transfer Drama

The saga surrounding Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak has taken another twist — and it’s starting to read more like a football thriller than a transfer story.

The Swedish international, who is reportedly pushing hard to leave St James' Park, had mysteriously gone off the radar earlier this week, sparking confusion and speculation among fans and pundits alike.

But now, the mystery is solved: Isak has resurfaced in Spain — and not just anywhere, but at his former club, Real Sociedad. The 24-year-old was spotted training at the facilities of the Basque side, in what appears to be a clear message to Newcastle’s boardroom.

According to reports, the striker is doing everything he can to force a move, with Liverpool currently leading the chase. However, Newcastle are standing firm — they want to secure a replacement before sanctioning any deal. The name at the top of their list? Benjamin Šeško of RB Leipzig.

Now, the Magpies face a difficult choice: sell Isak and reinvest quickly, or risk a standoff with one of their most valuable assets just weeks before the new season kicks off.
