Saudi Pro League giants Al-Hilal have reportedly entered the race to sign Newcastle United star Alexander Isak. Al-Hilal, who are looking for a new forward, are ready to compete with Liverpool to secure a transfer for the Swedish striker.

Manchester City have reportedly ruled out a summer move for Newcastle’s Tino Livramento, despite needing a new right-back following Kyle Walker’s departure to Burnley.

Liverpool are still keeping tabs on Alexander Isak despite signing Hugo Ekitike, with the Newcastle United striker keen to leave St James’ Park.

Despite reports, it is now reported that Isak is not currently in talks with Al-Hilal.
Alan Shearer has expressed his frustration with Newcastle United after they released what he deemed a misleading statement regarding Alexander Isak’s absence from their pre-season tour.

Bruno Guimaraes has addressed the growing uncertainty around Alexander Isak, whose absence from Newcastle United’s pre-season tour has sparked fresh transfer concern on Tyneside.

Newcastle United defender Dan Burn has candidly shared that the potential departure of Alexander Isak would cause discontent among the squad, amidst mounting speculation linking the Swedish striker with a big-money transfer to Liverpool.

Newcastle United may be nearing a critical decision regarding the future of Alexander Isak, who is reportedly eager to move on from St James’ Park. While the Magpies have attempted to persuade him to remain with a lucrative long-term contract offer worth £300,000 per week, the Swedish international is said to be eyeing a move to familiar rivals Liverpool.
Newcastle United have reportedly identified Wolves star Jorgen Strand Larsen as a replacement for Alexander Isak, with Eddie Howe being a long-term admirer of the Norwegian striker.
