After the 2-2 draw of Newcastle against Espanyol on Friday evening, Eddie Howe asked if Alexander Isak has a future in Newcastle United, quotes via George Caulkin via George Caulkin Athletics:
“He is here, so he naturally has a future in Newcastle.
“So, especially from our perspective, everyone connected to the club, we would like to see him again with the team.
“But the situation must be good to make that happen.
“He is here and he has contracted us, so as long as he is in that position, there is of course a chance that he could play for Newcastle again. But I don’t know what the future will entail.
“I wish Alex play today.
“I wish he will train tomorrow.
“We would love it that the player is with us. Let me make that absolutely clear, there is no part of me that that result does not want.
“But I don’t see that changing before the Aston Villa game.
“We have had discussions and it is clear that we cannot involve him in the group.
“I don’t know how long it will be. That’s the latter. I think I would rather just leave it with that line.
“I think the discussions should remain private. But it is clear that I cannot involve him in the team.
“I think the group is of course disturbed, but I think when you have a player in this situation, it is disturbing for the team.
“I don’t think we have been in that position since I have been here. The harmony and togetherness of the group have been the highest.
“So I think it was of course just a subject of conversation. It has been a distraction and I think the biggest kind of hit we have taken, we are not blessed with a number of players in his position. So I think you’ve seen a big gap.
“But I have to honor the players great because they continued their work. The training has been at a very high level. I have not seen a negative output on the field. But I was aware of feeling the group that there is something that is not in favor of the group.”
