The stunt has added even more fuel to an already fiery transfer saga.

Jamie Carragher has warned Liverpool to prepare a 'Plan B for Alexander Isak' as the Reds legend claimed that a £130 million-plus fee should get them Real Madrid superstar Kylian Mbappe.

Isak's growing discontent has stemmed from what he claims are "broken promises" made by club management, as the striker pushes for a move to Anfield.
Newcastle United could reportedly bid to sign Inter star Francesco Pio Esposito if Alexander Isak gate crashes his way out of St. James' Park to Liverpool. The Merseyside club are preparing to crank up the pressure on the Magpies with an eye-watering £130 million offer for Isak.

Alexander Isak's compatriot Robin Nelson says he stands by the Newcastle forward after he made his spat with the Magpies public with a bombshell statement on Tuesday. Isak claimed in his long rant that his relationship with the Magpies is over as his stand-off with them continues regarding a possible transfer to Liverpool this summer. Isak is no longer part of Eddie Howe's first team and his training alone.
Liverpool will reportedly table a mega new Alexander Isak transfer bid, with the Newcastle striker having been frozen out by manager Eddie Howe.
