Alexander Isak accused Newcastle United of breaking promises and misleading supporters in a social media statement on Tuesday that confirmed he wanted to leave the Premier League club. The 25-year-old striker said he informed Newcastle of his desire to leave a long time ago.

Only hours after Alexander Isak publicly bashed Newcastle United for “broken promises” and declaring the “relationship can’t continue,” the Magpies fired back at their star striker, adding another chapter to one of the biggest transfer sagas of the summer.
