Alexander Isak drops huge hint on Carabao Cup final fitness after limping off in Newcastle's clash with Brighton

Alexander Isak has addressed rumours that he could miss the Carabao Cup final in a rush of welcome news for Newcastle fans.

Newcastle will be without Anthony Gordon due to suspension and Lewis Hall due to injury, as exclusively revealed by Mail Sport, so the last thing they would need is their star striker out.

There were whisperings that he could miss the showpice occasion against Liverpool at Wembley after he limped off in Toon's 2-1 FA Cup loss to Brighton on Sunday.

Isak was withdrawn in the 86th minute at St James' Park, having already missed their midweek clash against Liverpool with a groin injury.
