Newcastle United defender Dan Burn wished his Liverpool-bound former teammate Alexander Isak “all the best” despite conceding that the striker’s behaviour this summer put everyone on Tyneside in a “tough situation.”
Isak publicly refused to play for Newcastle after the club blocked his move to Liverpool at the start of a tumultuous transfer saga. Eventually shunned from all first-team activity and left to train alone with a set of empty goals, tensions were high as the club’s talismanic figure did his best to force through an exit.
