Newcastle's Plan to Prevent Another Isak Situation
Newcastle is planning to include more release clauses in their players' contracts after the Alexander Isak transfer saga.
Alexander Isak's transfer to Liverpool dominated the headlines during the summer, with the Swedish player refusing to train at Newcastle to force a move to the Reds.
Isak became the most expensive Premier League player ever, but his legacy at St James' Park was tarnished.
Isak has struggled at the start of his Liverpool career, scoring just once in his first six appearances, while Newcastle has coped well without him, thanks to their £69million capture of Nick Woltemade.
The Magpies' hierarchy is now planning to prevent another situation like Isak's from unfolding.
