Alexander Isak has returned at Newcastle training ground following over over £110m opening offer from Liverpool got rejected,

According to Skysports, Newcastle do not want to sell, and value Alexander Isak at £150m. On Saturday morning, Newcastle made a £70m offer to RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko as they attempt to line up a replacement for Isak, should he leave.

Marcel Schafer, RB Leipzig’s managing director for sport, confirmed on Saturday that clubs have made approaches for Sesko, who is also wanted by Manchester United.

“We won’t go into detail on that but when I say that several clubs have shown strong interest and have made approaches, it’s obvious what has happened,” said Schafer.

The rest of the Newcastle squad are due back from their pre-season tour of Asia on Monday.

On Saturday, head coach Howe confirmed the club have turned down a bid from Liverpool for Isak, but is unsure on what will happen next.

“I am very much removed from anything that’s happening back home,” Howe said.

“I was made aware that there was a bid [on Friday] – that bid was turned down all before I even heard about it. There’s people back in England dealing with the situation.

“I really don’t know what’s going to happen next, but from our perspective we still support Alex in every way, and my wish is still that we see him in a Newcastle shirt again.”

Howe revealed that he only found out about Isak training in Spain through the media and not from the player himself.

“I know where he is now – through the media,” said Howe. “So I think from that perspective, it is difficult to go into any type of detail.”

The 25-year-old has informed Newcastle that he wants to explore his options in this transfer window after Liverpool previously made an informal approach for him.
