Isaac's transfer problem broke out really didn't choose the right time. If Liverpool announced that he would not renew his contract with Newcastle before signing Ekitic, he would be willing to leave the team this summer window, and Liverpool also has more time to promote this deal. But it was just after Liverpool officially announced Ekitic that Isaac's team made the decision to leave the team. Even if Liverpool really wants Isaac now, it will not give Newcastle room to raise prices. Now the players have completely broken up with the club and put pressure on Newcastle in this way, but it may not be successful.

According to reports from multiple English media, Isaac has clearly informed Newcastle that it will not participate in the team's training, nor will it participate in the new season's match against Villa and Liverpool, and will not accept the new contract given by the club. After the training and the game, and the refusal to renew the contract, Isaac's attitude is very firm and tough, but the problem is that he does not have the initiative. The contract with Newcastle has three years to make this matter complicated enough. If Newcastle really wants to establish his prestige, it may not be impossible to suppress Isaac. If Isaac's contract is only 1 year left, the initiative may be tilted to the players, but the problem is that with a three-year contract, Newcastle can completely control Isaac's future. Whether it is asking for a high price or not selling Isaac, Newcastle can make a decision on its own. Although players can stop training and games, clubs can also use this matter to "kill the chicken to scare the monkey", establish a transfer attitude, and not accept the threat from the players. This is also the only way for Newcastle to enter the giants.

Moreover, although Newcastle is not healthy in financial problems, there is no big risk. Isaac's salary is not high, and the pressure to give Newcastle's salary is not great. If the team chooses to forcibly suppress Isaac, whether it is placed on the bench or completely refrigerated, the players will eventually affect them. Of course, Newcastle is not without the possibility of Isaac leaving the team, as long as they have to find a suitable replacement. From the summer window to the present, almost no players Newcastle targets have obtained the chance to sign, which has also affected Isaac's departure.

Judging from the current news, whether it is a strike or a refusal to renew the contract, it is almost all the players' personal decisions. Liverpool's participation is not high, and players have not allowed to put pressure on the club in this way. Moreover, Liverpool has given a quotation of 120 million euros. This offer is only the first time. Newcastle does not give negotiations. It is getting closer and closer to the closing of the transfer window. It is becoming more and more difficult for Isaac to succeed. After all, it is less and less time for Newcastle to find a suitable replacement.
