Newcastle fans have completely lost it at what the club posted on social media just minutes after reports claimed Alexander Isak wants to leave the club.

After being left out of Eddie Howe's 30-man-squad for Newcastle's pre-season tour of Singapore it emerged that Isak had informed the club of his desires.

Isak has been heavily linked with Premier League champions Liverpool this summer, who are still interested in securing a deal for the Swede despite the arrival of Hugo Ekitike for £72m.

Isak scored 27 goals in 42 appearances last season in all competitions and is reportedly valued between £120 and £150 million by the Saudi owned club.

Just moments after the news of Isak's wishes, Newcastle's official X account made a post that has not gone down well with supporters.

The post showed Bruno Guimarães and Joelinton on board the club's flight to Singapore with the caption: "On our way to Singapore!"


Given the rather awkward timing, Newcastle fans were quick to react.

One fan replied: "Read the room guys..."

Another added: "Phenomenal timing lads, announce another kit whilst your at it why not."

A third brutally commented: "Two actual club legends, unlike a certain someone."

A fourth expressed huge concern about the direction of the club, writing: "I'm 68 now, and this summer has p*ssed me right off. I'm so happy we won the cup last season, and players do come and go, and we should expect that, but seriously amateurish by the club."

Another claimed: "This admin is going to make me say something I would regret."

The club didn't stop there with yet another post of players on the plane shortly after.

Isak's absence for the tour was put down to injury concerns, but The Athletic's David Ornstein has since confirmed the 25-year-old asked not to be included in order to seek a move.

What Eddie Howe has said about Alexander Isak

"It was my decision. He travelled to Glasgow with us but I decided to send him home due to the speculation around him," Howe told reporters.

"The last thing he wanted was to be sat in the stand watching - that wasn't fair to him. But I'm confident he will be a Newcastle player come the end of the window.

"Your top players are so hard to find, so hard to recruit and so hard to develop. So when you have them, you need to treasure them. Of course we're desperate to keep him as part of our team."

"Yes, I've had discussions with him, but that's not abnormal," said Howe. "I respect a player's career and how short it is. Alex has been really good, he's trained really well and I realise there'll be noise around him."
