Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie brings the latest developments in Isaac and Newcastle in the future.

reporter said: "Many people have always said that Newcastle doesn't sell Isaac. Newcastle doesn't want to lose him, but at the same time they also know that the players are unhappy and have the intention to leave the team. Newcastle tried to facilitate this transfer, but their negotiations to pursue Sheshko and Ekitic have failed, and now their choices for finding a replacement are very limited.

"Newcastle wants to sign Brentford striker Visa, but the striker is considered a replacement for Wilson, not Isaac, so if Liverpool significantly raises the offer for Isaac, then Newcastle must make a choice.

"If Newcastle signs Visa in the final stage of the transfer window, and signs another star striker, and Liverpool significantly raises the offer, I think Isaac may be allowed to leave the team."
