Almost Done: Isak Move To Liverpool Closer Than Ever

Liverpool continue their ambitious summer rebuild, and Alexander Isak remains firmly on their radar despite signing Hugo Ekitike last week.

The Reds, fresh from a Premier League title win, have added Jeremie Frimpong, Florian Wirtz, and Milos Kerkez to strengthen depth.

Ekitike bolsters the attack, but Arne Slot reportedly wants another elite striker, with Isak emerging as their primary transfer target.

Newcastle striker Isak, 25, has long been admired by Liverpool and has now been left out of the Magpies’ pre-season tour.

Eddie Howe’s blunt “no chance” response about Isak joining the tour suggests his Newcastle future may be coming to an end soon.

Reports claim Liverpool are considering a British-record £150 million offer to bring Isak to Anfield before the transfer window closes.

The Swedish forward is said to be eager to join Liverpool, prioritizing the Reds over other clubs and potential offers from abroad, reports Mirror.

Meanwhile, Liverpool are looking for a new centre-back after selling Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen earlier this summer transfer window.

With weeks remaining before the deadline, Liverpool’s summer business appears far from over  and Isak’s arrival could still headline it.
