According to British media Chroniclelive, Isaac will represent Newcastle in the warm-up match.
Newcastle United is closely monitoring Isaac's physical condition and the team will return to the UK next Monday.
If recovery is good, Isaac is expected to play in a friendly match against Espanyol or Atletico Madrid over the weekend, and currently misses the preseason tour in East Asia with a thigh injury.
Despite complaining about thigh discomfort, the scan of 25-year-old Isaac showed no serious damage. According to Spanish media, he is currently training alone with his personal coach in San Sebastian and has returned to his old club Real Sociedad to prepare for the new season.
Although Isaac had previously expressed his desire to explore transfer options, Newcastle does not intend to sell him for any price. Unless a suitable replacement is found, he may be left in the team.
Although the situation is not clear, Isaac still has support from his teammates. Team members are also waiting for more news.
defender Dan Bourne said early this week: "If we lose any player, it will affect us, a small group that has been together for two or three years. Someone left the team and it is always unfavorable, but we can only control the part we can control."
coach Eddie Howe said: "I hope he stays, but it's not entirely up to me. We haven't received any official offer from the club to Isaac. My wish is that he stays and continues to play for us next season."
