Alexander Isak’s hopes of securing a switch to Liverpool have taken an unexpected twist, with the Swedish forward now reportedly ready to consider a nuclear option that could see him unilaterally terminate his contract at the club.
Newcastle United’s star striker Alexander Isak is not alone in feeling disillusioned with the club’s current trajectory. Reports have emerged suggesting that several members of the squad are losing faith in the club’s supposedly ambitious plans, many of which were central to the vision laid out by owners, the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund (PIF), after their high-profile takeover in 2021.
Liverpool have agreed a deal to sign 17-year-old striker Will Wright from Salford City, beating competition from Arsenal. Reports suggest the total package could reach approximately £200,000, with further performance-related add-ons included. His contract will run until 2028.
Newcastle striker Alexander Isak has reportedly agreed personal terms with Liverpool on a five-year contract. The Premier League champions will now approach the Magpies with their opening offer for the Sweden international. The Reds have already spent nearly £300 million ($403m) this summer on new signings, including French forward Hugo Ekitike.
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe has admitted he is “not in full control” of Alexander Isak’s future as Liverpool continue to be linked with the Swedish striker.
Liverpool are reportedly lining up a 'record proposal' for Newcastle United star Alexander Isak following the almost confirmed sale of Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich. The Reds are keen to reinvest the £65 million fee from Diaz’s exit and the Swedish striker is now their top target. The 25-year-old has ruled out a switch to Saudi Arabia, focusing solely on a Merseyside move.
