Newcastle will revisit contract discussions with Alexander Isak at the end of the season - but have reminded their star striker he is already on a long-term deal.
There were talks towards the back end of last season that did not progress. Given the Swede is contracted until 2028 and is among their highest earners, the club took the stance then that a new and improved deal was not possible, especially as others would then expect similar reward.
It remains to be seen whether they can go to the financial level Isak would demand - and deserves - or if he even wants a new deal.
