2025 Fantasy Outlook
Isak is coming off his best season as a professional, lighting the league up with a career-high 23 goals, finishing second in the Golden Boot race. He added six assists and had multi-goal contribution games in six different outings. While seemingly dealing with a nagging injury the majority of the second half of the season, he battled through and started 34 matches. His summer has been thrown into disarray as he pushes for a move away from Newcastle. With reports that he is refusing to play for the club again it's hard to see him suiting up on Tyneside during the 2025/26 campaign. If he does get his move to Liverpool he would remain one of the top strikers in the league and an elite option in all competitions.
Out for couple of months
Isak (ankle) will be out for a couple of months, coach Arne Slot confirmed in the press conference. "No, it's going to be a long injury. For a couple of months. That's a big, big, big disappointment for him and as a result of that of course also for us. "Yeah, the last thing I am [confident he can play again this season]." He underwent surgery Monday for an ankle injury that included a fibula fracture.
ANALYSIS
Isak suffered a bad tackle in the last game against Tottenham and sustained a serious ankle injury that required surgery on Monday. The striker will be out for a couple of months, although an end of season injury is unlikely at this point since coach Arne Slot is confident about a return before the end of the campaign. His absence will allow Hugo Ekitike to take on a larger role in the frontline.

Scores, suffers scary injury
Isak would score one goal on one shot in Saturday's match against Tottenham before exiting the field with an apparent knee injury, according to manager Arne Slot, per James Pearce of The Athletic. "I don't have any news on him, but if a player scores, gets injured, and doesn't come back on the pitch or doesn't try to come back, it's usually not a good thing. I cannot say anything more than that. That is just a gut feeling and nothing more than that. Nothing medical to say about it."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reds to launch final bid?
Liverpool are expected to launch a final bid for Isak, according to The Telegraph.
ANALYSIS
Liverpool only have a few days to get a deal done for Isak, and they're set to launch what would be a new British transfer record to secure the services of the Swede. Liverpool are expected to make an improved £130 million offer for the 25-year-old, but the add-ons and bonuses on the deal would make this transfer the most expensive one in Premier League history. It's unclear if Newcastle would be open to accept such offer, though.
