Newcastle are ready to agree to a mega sale of Alexander Isak according to one report but it all depends on one condition.

Things have reached a boiling point between the two parties. Both Newcastle and Isak released statements of their own on Tuesday night in which they contradict each other.

Isak claims he had an agreement with Newcastle which they didn't adhere to. Newcastle claim there was no agreement of any kind in place.

It's a bit of he said, she said at the moment. We probably will never find out the truth. But while Newcastle remain open to paving a way back for Isak into the first team, the Swede remains adamant he wants a change and made that clear in his statement.

Ultimately, who will prevail remains to be seen. One thing is certain, even in Newcastle's statement, a departure from the club has not been ruled out.

Newcastle claimed that certain 'conditions' had to be met, without alluding to what this is in order for Isak to be sold. These haven't been met so far but they could be soon.

According to Keith Downie, a reporter for Sky Sports, speaking on the Good Morning Transfers show, Newcastle could be ready to agree a mega transfer for Isak.

"I think if they were to land [Yoane] Wissa in the next few days and I'm expecting Newcastle to come in with a higher bid to Brentford. If they were to land Wissa, and Liverpool came to the table and offered a £130m or a £135m, would be my reading into the situation then I think Newcastle might have a little decision to make," Downie said.

So it feels like there is a deal to be had. Officially, Newcastle's asking price may be £150m but behind the scenes if Downie is to be believed they are ready to do a deal at a lower price.

Let's not get it twisted. £150m is still a lot of money to pay for one player. It's a mega deal at the end of the day. It will shatter the British transfer record.

But Liverpool have wanted to sign Isak for ages. He's been their man from the beginning of the summer. If they really want him, why not pay the £25m extra from your initial £110m bid in order to get the transfer over the line?

Obviously, the condition is that Newcastle need to sign Wissa first. At this moment in time that hasn't happened yet. If it does, the doors will swing ajar for Liverpool to strike an agreement.

The situation is still murky and it's hard to predict how this one ends. But Newcastle haven't completely ruled out the possibility of Isak leaving.

On the other hand, the Swede has made it very clear he doesn't want to play for the Magpies again. At this point surely Newcastle are better off selling Isak and moving on from this situation.
