Howe confident Isak will stay at Newcastle after striker left out of thrashing by Celtic
Eddie Howe, the Newcastle manager, has expressed confidence that Alexander Isak will remain at the club at the start of the upcoming season. Isak was left out of Newcastle's 4-0 pre-season friendly defeat against Celtic on Saturday, which Howe attributed to managing the striker's minutes and the ongoing transfer speculation surrounding him. Despite the thrashing, Howe stated that he is "confident he'll be here at the start of the season," suggesting that Isak will not be leaving the club in the near future. The decision to omit Isak from the Celtic match was likely a precautionary measure to avoid potential injury or further speculation about his future.
