Alexander Isak has opened the door to an output in Newcastle United after he remains for the club's tour by Singapore
Alexander Isak has opened the door for a sensational transfer from British record to Liverpool after he has informed Newcastle that he wants to explore a move by St James' park. Isak did not travel with the magpies to Singapore for their tour for the season yesterday, although the club insisted that his omission was due to a thigh problem.
However, it is understood that the Swede asked to stay behind after he also missed the 4-0 friendly defeat of Saturday at Celtic. Liverpool retains an interest and will now consider a new approach after their first investigation had been hit back about 10 days ago.
The large spending Reds, who are already splashing of £ 300 million on newcomers after picking up Newcastle to Hugo Ekitike, are likely to require sales to present a formal offer.
Luis Diaz is sought by Bayern Munich and would like to become a member of the German giants, while Darwin Nunez, Harvey Elliott, Federico Chiesa and Tyler Morton remain possible departure before next month's transfer.
Saudi Pro League side of PIF, Al-Hilal, are also to Isak, who has rejected the chance to sign a new deal with Newcastle and would be willing to offer the 25-year-old an eye-water contract worth a maximum of £ 500,000 a week including bonuses.
Earlier in the year, Arsenal initially had Isak TOP of their summer list, but the Gunners – like other lovers – did not feel that he was feasible after Newcastle Champions League qualification had taken care of and started to lay the foundation on other goals instead.
The side of Mikel Arteta is now completing a £ 63.7 million deal for Sporting CPs Viktor Gyokeres, of whom is expected to undergo a medical medical medical in the coming days after a five -year contract with the Emirates.
Manchester United has also excluded a Swoop for Isak, while Chelsea, who did a study last summer, prioritize the arrivals of RB Leipzig that midfielder Xavi Simons and Ajax defender Jorrel Hato attacks after landing Liam Delap and Joao Pedro.
Sources at Stamford Bridge have cast cold water at the prospect of a dive for the Sweden International despite appreciation for the player.
Newcastle remains determined to keep Isak, although his Power play from Bombshell could now force their hand. The Magpies appreciate the ex-Real Sociedad striker at around £ 150 million.
In the meantime, Eddie Howe's side continues to talk to Brentford about a swoop for Yoane Wissa of £ 40 million. The interest of Eddie Howe in Wissa is not related to the future of ISAK and Newcastle has already had an opening offer in the £ 25 million region for the Dr. Congo International.
It is assumed that Newcastle is already exploring other forward goals while waiting that Isak could leave.
