Alexander Isak given drastic new plan to force Newcastle into Liverpool transfer

Alexander Isak is pushing for a move to Liverpool this summer and has accused Newcastle of breaking promises

Alexander Isak has been told to "ruin" Newcastle training sessions to try and force through a move to Liverpool. Isak is desperate to leave Newcastle this summer, with the Magpies rejecting a £110million bid from Liverpool.

The situation recently escalated after Isak released a statement claiming the club had broken promises, while Newcastle hit back by insisting that "no commitment has ever been made by a club official that Alex can leave".

Newcastle also stated that "the conditions of a sale this summer have not transpired" and that they "do not foresee those conditions being met". Former Premier League striker Troy Deeney has now weighed in on the situation, suggesting Isak should try and "ruin" training.

Deeney used that tactic to force his move from Walsall to Watford back and recalled in a column for the Sun : "How they should have played it is how I played it with my agent when I was pushing to move from Walsall to Watford back in the summer of 2010.

"In private, my agent said to me, 'you're going to have to kick up a fuss here. You're going back to training and you'll do all of the running but as soon as a ball is involved, you're going to have to ruin sessions, you're going to have to kick balls away. But importantly, you can't let anyone on the outside know what's going on'.

"It was really hard, you would go home feeling guilty, being a d*** for no reason, burning bridges for people you quite like. But you've just go to remember who you're doing it for: yourself. That's how Isak will be feeling.

"This is a career-changing, career-defining move. You're going from Newcastle to one of the biggest clubs in world football in Liverpool, where you are probably going to win major titles."

It remains to be seen whether Isak will get his move or not, but Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has suggested that the saga is set to "come to an end pretty quickly". Speaking ahead of Newcastle's clash with Liverpool on Monday, Howe said: "He won't be part of the squad this weekend.

"The club has to act in the best interests of Newcastle United. It will do that in every situation It looks like it is coming to an end, or it will come to an end pretty quickly.

"It was a sad moment. My preference is these things do not happen publicly. They are better dealt with behind closed doors. But needs must. The club has spoken and justifiably so in that moment.

"He's contracted to us. He's our player. My wish is that he would be playing on Monday. He won't be and that's regrettable. But 100 per cent I want him back in a Newcastle shirt."
