Liverpool is willing to break their transfer record for the second time, because the future of Alexander Isak in Newcastle was thrown in further doubt.
The Premier League champions have already made the statement of the summer by signing Florian Wirtz for £ 116 million; They supplemented that by landing by another Bayer Leverkusen player, Jeremie Frimpong, and Bournemouth left back Milos Kerkez.
But the addition of Isak, who shares the same agent as Kerkez, would surpass everything. It will be a new British record allowance to secure the Sweden International, before £ 125 million, but the intentions of Liverpool are clear: they will move if they receive encouragement.
Newcastle remains non -free that Isak is not for sale and wants to improve its £ 120,000 a week – a task that should have been done on the watch of former director of Football Paul Mitchell – but conversations that were stuck earlier this year and no progress has been made.
Isak is currently with the Newcastle team in Austria for a training camp and they want to improve their forward line by adding Hugo Eintracht Frankfurt, but so far their bid has fallen far from the expectations of the German: they want € 100 million (£ 86 million) for the France among the 21 international.
Mail Sport understands that Newcastle has offered £ 70 million for labeles – a player in whom Liverpool also retains an interest – but the structure of what they have offered does not count what Frankfurt wants; So far it has been a challenging window for Newcastle, who have agreed to sell Sean Longstaff to Leeds.
Liverpool is determined to add a striker to their ranks, because they have secured their 20th title and although Isak represents the ideal choice, it is very bad that the club's modus of the club has different goals when they are needed.
Apart from Isak and label, Liverpool discussed the Ollie Watkins and Yoane Wissa from Aston Villa, the Livewire Brentford Forward who came close to Arsenal in January. Victor Osimhen was also mentioned during conversations with Napoli about Darwin Nunez.
Another intriguing detail is the fact that the name of Marcus Rashford of Manchester United was driven during a conversation, but nothing further went further; There is little potential to revive, given the question marks about his form in the past seasons.
This is an exceptionally busy period for Liverpool, which immediately rejected an offer for Luis Diaz from Bayern Munich on Tuesday. The German champions have made a proposal of £ 58.5 million for the Colombia International, but that is miles of the £ 86 million appreciation of the Anfield Club.
That figure is identical to reimbursement that Manchester United has rejected for their captain Bruno Fernandes of Saudi Arabian side already Hilal at the beginning of June. Diaz, who is two years younger than the Portuguese, was the subject of strong importance of Al Nassr.
In a situation that reflects ISAK's position on Tyneside, sources in Colombia Mail Sport have told that although Diaz has enormous affection for Liverpool, he does not believe that his current salary represents his value for the club. There have been no signs that they renew the conditions of the 28-year-old.
Barcelona is also constantly linked to Diaz, but they have not made any contact. Liverpool will clearly discharge part of their team in the coming weeks. Napoli is the only club that makes contact with Darwin Nunez, but their range of £ 55 million, including add-ons, was Miles Short.
Nunez, who scored the 3-1 win over Preston last Sunday, was Liverpool's club record in 2022 for £ 84 million and the intention is to earn back £ 70 million. England under the 21 pairs of Harvey Elliott and Tyler Morton also have admirers.
