Romano later confirmed the news.
TA's report said that Liverpool had previously had informal contact with Newcastle and expressed interest in reaching a deal for about £120 million, but Liverpool's official offer has been rejected.
Newcastle attempts to sign a new contract with Isaac, including increasing treatment, and joining the termination clause effective next summer. Newcastle also encouraged him to stay in the team through senior team members. But the 25-year-old has not changed his position, and he and his agent have clearly expressed their willingness to leave the team.
Isaac has three years left in the contract with Newcastle. Newcastle has begun to look for a replacement. At present, their position is still that Isaac is not selling.
