The 25-year-old is desperate to force through a move to <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/liverpool-fc\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool<\/a>, who have already seen one bid for the striker rejected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Isak is training away from his team-mates after insisting he has played his final game for the club &#8211; and was absent for their <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/premier-league\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Premier League<\/a> opener at <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/aston-villa-fc\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Aston Villa<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">He also decided to stay away from the PFA Awards ceremony in Manchester, where he was named along with five Liverpool players in the 2024\/25 Premier League XI. And seconds after his inclusion, he spoke for the first time this summer, accusing <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/newcastle-united-fc\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Newcastle<\/a> of breaking promises and &#8211; ultimately &#8211; his trust.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">&#8220;First and foremost I want to thank my teammates and everyone at <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/newcastle-united-fc\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Newcastle United<\/a> who has supported me along the way,\u201d he said on social media.<\/p>\n<p>READ MORE: <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/sport\/football\/news\/breaking-alexander-isak-liverpool-statement-35759484\" data-tmdatatrack=\"read-more\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"35759484\" data-tmdatatrack-source=\"editorial\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alexander Isak finally breaks silence on Liverpool transfer saga: &#8220;Promises have been broken&#8221;<\/a>READ MORE: <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/sport\/football\/transfer-news\/transfer-news-live-liverpool-isak-35747353\" data-tmdatatrack=\"read-more\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"35747353\" data-tmdatatrack-source=\"editorial\" tabindex=\"0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Transfer news LIVE: Alexander Isak breaks silence, Spurs close to Eze deal, Man Utd chase targets<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cI&#8217;m not at the ceremony tonight. With everything going on, it didn&#8217;t feel right to be there. I&#8217;ve kept quiet for a long time while others have spoken. That silence has allowed people to push their own version of events, even though they know it doesn&#8217;t reflect what was really said and agreed behind closed doors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cThe reality is that promises were made and the club has known my position for a long time. To now act as if these issues are only emerging is misleading. When promises are broken and trust is lost, the relationship can&#8217;t continue. That&#8217;s where things are for me right now and why change is in the best interests of everyone, not just myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">But just two minutes after that statement was dropped, Guimaraes posted an image of himself proudly standing in a Newcastle shirt. The Brazilian quashed speculation over his own future earlier this year by signing a new five-year deal and remains a huge fan favourite.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/0_IMG_6049jpeg.jpg\" alt=\"Alexander Isak's statement\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Isak has spoken out on Instagram(Image: Instagram\/alex_isak)<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/0_Bruno-GuimaraesJPG.jpg\" alt=\"Bruno Guimaraes posted the image on his social media minutes after Isak's statement\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Bruno Guimaraes posted the image on his social media minutes after Isak&#8217;s statement(Image: instagram\/brunoguimaraes)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Supporters on social media certainly felt the timing of his post was intentional, one said: \u201cBruno posting this literally minutes after Isak&#8217;s statement tells you all you need to know!.our captain and we love you!<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">A second posted: \u201c5 minutes after Alexander Isak\u2019s dummy eventually fell out our captain and legend of the club Bruno Guimareas added this to his story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Another replied: \u201cBruno Guimaraes posting this exactly five minutes after Isak\u2019s announcement is sensational tbh.&#8221; And a fourth added: \u201cIsak posts this, Bruno posts this 5 mins later, coincidence? I think not. My captain!\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Guimaraes was part of the Newcastle side forced to settle for a point on the opening weekend of the season, where despite dominating Aston Villa, they were unable to put the ball in the back of the net.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/0_GettyImages-2208159057.jpg\" alt=\"Akexander Isak\" loading=\"lazy\"  \/>Alexander Isak has said his relationship with Newcastle cannot continue(Image: Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">That irony wasn\u2019t lost on Newcastle fans, who after greeting their players with rapturous applause sent a message to the absent Isak.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cI think we deserved more and I\u2019m happy with the way we started,\u201d he said on the draw at Villa Park. \u201cIt\u2019s never easy to debut away from home against a well-coached team. We stick together. Can\u2019t wait for next Monday at St James\u2019 Park. Howay the lads.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">As for Isak, his position now seems increasingly untenable, with a huge decision to be made on his future before the window closes later this month.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \"><strong class=\"Strong_strong__e2x35\"><a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/chat.whatsapp.com\/KpLVIG1AXsd0FvfduhjjzO\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Join our new WhatsApp community <\/a>and receive your daily dose of Mirror Football content.
