Alexander Isak rejects Newcastle olive branch from club officials in north-east visit

Striker remains keen on move to Liverpool.

Newcastle United's Alexander Isak.

Alexander Isak is understood to have declined a high-powered invitation to return to Newcastle’s first-team fold.

The Sweden striker has spent most of this summer on a form of strike as he attempts to engineer a move to Liverpool by refusing to play for Eddie Howe’s first team or rejoin the squad for training.
