A senior Newcastle source told Telegraph Sport on Tuesday, “there was no chance at all” Isak would be sold, echoing off the record briefings we have reported all summer.

Alexander Isak has finally gone public on his desire to leave Newcastle United claiming promises have been “broken” and “trust is lost” as he urged the club to allow to leave.

Isak has allegedly informed Newcastle that he has played his last game for the club, even though the Magpies have rejected a bid from Liverpool.
