Isak back with Newcastle for talks over his future

LEXANDER Isak is facing showdown talks with Newcastle boss Eddie Howe after returning to Tyneside.
The 25-year-old Sweden international headed back to Tyneside over the weekend after spending time working on his fitness at former club Real Sociedad as Premier League champions Liverpool formalised their interest in him with a £110 million bid, which was swiftly rejected by the Magpies.
He reported to the club's training headquarters on Monday morning as the rest of the squad returned from their preseason trip to Singapore and South Korea.
Isak missed the tour having cited a thigh injury amid fevered speculation over his future.
Newcastle have repeatedly insisted they have no intention of selling their star striker - who they value at around £150m - this summer.
