No tyne to waste with Isak on way out
NEWCASTLE have made a bid for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko after boss Eddie Howe admitted the situation surrounding unsettled star Alexander Isak was "far from ideal".
All eyes are on St James' Park as the Magpies look to keep the Swedish sharpshooter while also attempting to bring in a big-name striker.
Newcastle have accelerated talks with Leipzig to sign Sesko - who Man United also have in their sights - and submitted an offer reportedly worth up to £69.7million.
The development comes after the Magpies rejected a £110m bid for Isak on Friday from Liverpool, who recently beat them to the signing of Frankfurt frontman Hugo Ekitike.
"I think from my situation, I am very much removed from everything that is happening back home," Newcastle boss Howe (below) said on Isak.
