Alexander Isak Dismisses Transfer Rumors Again, Eager to Return to Newcastle After Cup Triumph

Newcastle United’s long-awaited trophy win, their first in 56 years, owes much to players like Alexander Isak.

However, beyond individual contributions, the triumph reinforces the message given to those recruited under PIF ownership—promises of competing for silverware were genuine.

This success serves as proof that Newcastle is a club on the rise, and those who stay can expect more to come.

Despite this, the media quickly shifted the narrative.

Mere hours after Isak lifted the trophy, speculation emerged linking him with a summer move to Liverpool—the very team Newcastle had just defeated to claim the cup. The irony is almost comical, yet such rumors persist.

Isak Responds to Transfer Speculation Again

Following Newcastle’s celebrations, the squad dispersed—international players joined their national teams, while others traveled to Dubai for some well-earned rest.

Isak, who returned to Sweden for international duty, was once again asked about his future.

Speaking to Fotbollskanalen, he addressed the ongoing transfer rumors:

“There’s not much to say, really. I’ve spoken about my situation and how secure I feel at Newcastle many times.

It’s been well documented how much I love the city and the club, and how comfortable I feel there. I’m not thinking about the future—I just want to perform for Newcastle.

We’ve won the cup, but we also want to finish strong and qualify for the Champions League. That’s my only focus.”

No Indication That Isak Wants to Leave

Isak’s stance remains unchanged. While he avoids completely ruling out a transfer—since, in football, players don’t always have full control over their future—there is no indication that he is looking for an exit. He appears fully committed to Newcastle.

Further reinforcing this, Isak expressed excitement about returning after the international break to witness the celebrations in Newcastle firsthand.

“Things like that can’t be described. You can only imagine how it feels. But it’s an incredible feeling—Wembley packed with Newcastle fans.

I’m looking forward to seeing what Newcastle is like as a city after this. I haven’t been back yet.”

The upcoming celebrations in Newcastle on March 29 promise to be extraordinary, likely surpassing even the jubilant scenes at Wembley.

The city will undoubtedly erupt in joy, making this victory all the more special for the club and its supporters.
