Isak Included in Sweden Squad Despite Club Absence
Stockholm, August 27 (QNA) - Newcastle striker Alexander Isak has been called up for Sweden's upcoming two 2026 World Cup qualifiers despite lacking any game time this season.
Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson has selected the 25-year-old for the Slovenia and Kosovo matches due in early September although he is now training away from his team-mates as he pushes for a Liverpool move despite having three years left on his contract.
Tomasson justified his decision that the forward can decide matches, and he wants to be part of the squad.
A £110m Liverpool offer to sign Isak was rejected in early August, but the Reds have yet to make a fresh bid.
Isak accused the Magpies on social media of breaking a promise to let him leave this summer. (QNA)
