Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe openly pleaded for a quick resolution to the ongoing Alexander Isak transfer saga looming over Tyneside. The Magpies boss insisted that his star striker is more than welcome back in the first team, but the club’s travelling fans offered a rather different message.

Alexander Isak remains a player of interest heading into the final weeks of the summer transfer window. Liverpool are heavily linked with the Sweden international, who is believed to be keen on a move to Anfield.
