After behaving like a spoilt brat for 40 days, Alexander Isak has finally addressed Newcastle fans.
The 25-year-old sealed a £130m move to Liverpool last night and did not utter a word about Newcastle in his seven-minute interview with his new club, also blanking out his former employers in his social media post.
That riled Newcastle fans further and added to the feeling of disrespect he’s shown throughout this saga, but he has now posted a video on Instagram – but not before his agent sent a bizarre line into talkSPORT.
Sent into the broadcaster earlier today Vlado Lemic said:
“It’s nice when you have someone to be with, but it’s even nicer when you know who you’ll never be with again.”
Fair to say he will not be dealing with Newcastle any time soon, and it’s just as well when you consider his antics and the lack of quality players on his roster behin Isak and Emi Martinez!
Then to Isak himself, who had this to say in an Instagram message to players, staff and Newcastle fans:
“I want to express my gratitude to my teammates, the staff, and above all, the city of Newcastle and all the amazing supporters for the three unforgettable years we shared together.”
“Together, we have written history and brought the club to the place where it truly belongs. It has been an honour to be part of the journey from reaching the Champions League to winning the first trophy in over 70 years.”
“Forever grateful. Thank you, Newcastle.”

Too little too late. The bare minimum has been done in him finally showing some sort of appreciation to those who built him up at Newcastle, but a generic and AI-looking few sentences doesn’t really cut it.
Actions speak louder than words, and his actions have well and truly ruined his legacy or ‘legendary’ status over the past five weeks.
Good riddance.
