Former Newcastle United striker, Andy Carroll has criticized Alexander Isak for trying to force a move to Liverpool this summer transfer window.
Carroll labelled Isak’s behavior as a shame because Newcastle fans want him to stay at St. James’ Park this season.
Isak has refused to play for Newcastle again and as a result the Swede international has gone on strike.
He will not take part in Newcastle’s Premier League tie against Aston Villa this weekend.
The 25-year-old has made his decision clear he wants to join Liverpool this summer.
Speaking on the development, Carroll told Sky Sports: “Isak is not from Newcastle so he can act like he is acting now and think it is acceptable.
“It is a big move for him. The way he is playing his cards at the minute, the Newcastle fans are not going to back him and it is a shame because he is such a good player and every Newcastle fan wants him to stay, the manager wants him to stay.”
