Here is the statement in response to Alexander Isak.
We are disappointed to have been alerted to a social media post by Alexander Isak this evening.
We are clear in response that Alex remains under contract and that no commitment has ever been made by a club official that Alex can leave Newcastle United this summer.
We want to keep our best players, but we also understand players have their own wishes and we listen to their views. As explained to Alex and his representatives, we must always take into consideration the best interests of Newcastle United, the team and our supporters in all decisions and we have been clear that the conditions of a sale this summer have not transpired.
We do not foresee those conditions being met.
This is a proud football club with proud traditions and we strive to retain our family feel. Alex remains part of our family and will be welcomed back when he is ready to rejoin his teammates

Newcastle's then director Amanda brought Isak to Newcastle & she promised him an improved contract at the end of the season...But she was sacked & Paul Mitchell replaced him & Mr. Mitchell decided not to offer him improved contract since Isak has still 3 years left in his contract...Remember Isak behaved professionally when Liverpool submitted their 1st offer, gave no indications that he wants to join Liverpool....yet still after that Newcastle didn’t give him improved contract...generally clubs try to fend of other club’s interest by giving their in-demand players improved contract on longer terms like Arsenal is trying to fend of Madrid by offering better & longer terms to Saliba...Newcastle fans & legends like Alan Shearer talked about respect from Liverpool by demanding 150M transfer bid...I ask them the same question where is their respect to Isak when they pay one of the best strikers in the league only 120k/w, the same amount Liverpool pay their third choice left back Tsimikas, even Chiesa earns more than Isak...y wouldn’t Isak be angered by Newcastle's double standards? they talk about family, loyalty & respect? why is it that It's only Isak's responsibility to show loyalty? this whole situation became toxic because of Newcastle director & owners's poor handling of the situation...players aren’t products, they r humans

I would never force a woman to stay with me if she desires to leave.

Isak must humble himself and negotiatebehind closed doors, he is still under contract, he refused to go for pre season tour, but he is still receiving his wages, as long the contract still binds he is on the wrong side

Good analysis. But Isak have to ask, let him speak up, at least his representative should have made it clear, add up our client's fee or wages or he leave to other offers. They are too quiet.

He did what was promised, he reached 20 goal mark & took the club in UCL but he Didn't get the 300k/w salary as promised..by now it has become more than money, the player feels he's betrayed & the club vilified him to the world

I like the end of your comment... "players aren’t products, they are humans". This issue is very delicate and the fact is that Newcastle have made it to escalate with the way they're handing it.
