It looks like Alexander Isak could leave Newcastle permanently during the current summer transfer window, and there are some huge clubs interested in signing him. The striker has had his head turned and apparently wants to assess his options this summer. The situation has turned sour and it looks like it’s going to be a hard situation to resolve. Here are the latest betting odds for Isak’s next possible club.
Alexander Isak Next Club Betting Odds
Isak has been one of the best strikers in Europe whilst playing for Newcastle and was essential in helping them lift the Carabao Cup. This has seen the forward attract a lot of interest from huge clubs. He’s a world-class talent and clearly feels like he wants to make the next big move in his career. Newcastle have adored the player of the years, but the drama around this transfer saga has seemed to turn a lot of fans against the striker.
| Isak Next Club Betting Odds | Odds | Implied Probability |
| Newcastle | 4/6 | 60% |
| Liverpool | 11/10 | 47.6% |
| Any Saudi Arabian team | 14/1 | 6.7% |
| PSG | 50/1 | 2% |
Isak breaks silence as odds dramatically shift in Newcastle’s favour
Isak’s decision to want to explore his options has now added more drama to this summer transfer window, leaving Newcastle fans worried about how their squad will look next season.
Liverpool were favourites to sign the striker last week, with their odds as short as 2/5, but now the odds have dramatically shifted in Newcastle’s favour. Liverpool’s odds are now 11/10, whilst Newcastle’s odds are 4/6. The odds of the forward staying at Newcastle were 7/4 last week.
Newcastle will still try their best to keep Isak, as they are struggling to find a replacement or two for him. They wanted Brentford’s Yoane Wissa but they are unable to agree a fee for the forward, who is also refusing to play for the club like Isak is.
Isak has finally broken his silence on the transfer saga via Instagram and it is not a statement Newcastle fans would want to see. The Swedish international wrote a long message in which he stated that ‘promises are broken and trust is lost’. Isak went on to say that the ‘relationship can’t continue’ between player and club.
Despite the fact that he is adamant that he needs to leave, the odds shifting in Newcastle’s favour is not the biggest surprise. They cannot afford the lose such a good striker without replacing him and they are finding it very hard to find a suitable forward. More so, Isak is still contracted to the club and his contract has no release clause, so the Magpies are definitely in the driving seat for now.
No doubt the striker making this statement also emphasises that Newcastle are trying to keep him at the club, and is another reason for why the odds have shifted in their favour, especially with Liverpool not making any new bids yet for Isak.
