Alan Pordew believes that Alexander Isak is trying to do Newcastle United while looking for Liverpool.
The Reds saw a bid of £ 110 million for the strikers rejected forward, and they do not have to return to the table with another offer.

The striker informed the Toon about his wish to play elsewhere and continue to Tyneside after three years.
He did not take part in the club’s pre-season tour and is currently training alone.
Despite all the efforts of Isak to go, the former Toon boss Pardew believes that the transfer will remain a Newcastle player this summer.
Pordew said about the last word with Majestic: “The transfer to me does not look as if Newcastle is now digging the heels, and I think they are angry.

“I would also be if I were in the Newcastle board. I would dig my heels so that the fee could really be silly.”
Newcastle starts its Premier League campaign next week with talk sport against Aston Villa.
In front of an exciting campaign for everyone who should be attributed to the Toon as a Champions League football, the club is of the prospect that he does not have the best striker for the match in Isak.
Even if he was to be integrated into the team again, Isak has not played a single minute of the previous season.
And on Isak himself, Pordew said: “The problem is that he treated it so badly. He couldn’t have treated it worse.
“His agents and consultants said to him that he should throw down the tools after serving this great football club, and he does really bad things to keep them a ransom and more or less way.”

The Swede rejected the interest from Saudi Arabia and only has eyes for Liverpool.
And Pordew believes that the red could end with another attacker after seeing Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez departure this summer.
With the needs of Liverpool, Pordew believes that they could make up with a striker.
“You let go of two and brought two in, so you probably think where you think,” he added.
“But transfers take their own course. First of all, it feels like it would happen, and the club has it so well, and then it suddenly revolves around and I think Newcastle is moved to this area.”
Will Isak go?
Reports from Newcastle indicate that Isak has been informed that he will not go this summer anywhere after the club Benjamin Sesko does not end up, and the Slovenian change to Manchester United decided.
When asked whether the player could go, Eddie Howe said: “This is a decision that I will not make.
“For myself, I just try to manage the situation and manage the team, especially to manage the group of players with whom I work every day, and which I like to train and help.
“We concentrate on the Aston Villa. Everything else, to a certain extent my point of view is not in my control, so it’s not my focus.”
In the specific reports about Isak, he said: “I don’t know that. Of course there are discussions that I don’t celebrate. I have no knowledge of it.”

Liverpool’s interest should be there until the end of the window, but whether it manifests itself in another commandment is another matter.
However, after Virgil van Dijk was part of the red side that lost in the community sign against Crystal Palace, he revealed that another attacker should be introduced.
In an interview with Talk Sport’s Alex Crook, he said: “Well, we just lost Darwin, he went to Saudi and we lost Lucho [Diaz]Obviously he went to Bavaria.
“I think there is always space for an attacker to strengthen us. Let us see what the window brings about the team’s balance.”
But Arne Slot doesn’t believe that there are problems for the team up top.
He also said to Crook and said: “I think we have more than more than enough options to be good enough to win the community shield.
“Here I concentrate on myself. With the players we have, we should be able to win to score. That is actually what we did. We scored two goals and last season we only rated one against them, away and at home.
“We could only hit one against them. My last concern at the moment is our offensive quality. It is more. It is not a problem, but if I look at the amount of goals that we admitted in the previous season is not our standard.”
