Alexander Isak wants to leave Newcastle with Liverpool heavily connected this summer, but the Swede could earn incredible amounts if he moved to Saudi Arabia with Al-Hilal
Alexander Isak from Newcastle has been told that he could just have a mammoth £ 600,000 a week if he chooses to sign Hilal in Saudi Arabia for Al Hilal. The Swede has told the Magpies that he wants to explore his options from the club.
Isak has been a leading light in St James' Park and excelled in his three seasons, which has placed him among the most popular properties in Europe. The striker did not travel with Newcastle during their pre-season tour to Asia, who only served to increase speculation with regard to his exit.
Liverpool is the only Premier League side that is expected to move to Isak, even though he has already spent more than £ 200 million to newcomers this summer.
The Reds just broke up with £ 79 million to land Huko Ekitike from Frankfurt with the Frenchman who is signed as a no. 9, but that is unlikely that Liverpool will go after Isak if it becomes clear that the Swede Newcastle wants to leave and seek Weiden new.
If finances are ultimately his motivation, neither Newcastle nor Liverpool will be able to match the figures offered in Saudi Arabia. Al Hilal has told Isak's advisors that they are willing to close a deal worth more than half a million a week, which would be him with the highest earners of football, reports the Daily Mail.
The Magpies would like to negotiate a new deal, even though he has three years to conclude his current contract. They want to offer him a deal that reflects its value in the northeast, but it can be too late with Isak who now wants to judge his options.
Already Hilal continued to bend their financial muscles and several summers ago a world record offer on Kylian Mbappe when he was still on PSG. They have also continued to rob the Premier League for talent, making them one of the dominant forces of their country.
Ruben Neves, Joao Annulso and Aleksandar Mitrovic all work their trade with the Saudi outfit. However, ISAK is not expected to take the lucrative offer with the striker at the height of his powers and continues to improve.
Reportedly, every decision about the future of Isak will be made by Newcastle chairman Yasir Al -Rahayyan -not Eddie Howe. His involvement is unusual in St James' Park, where the Saudi businessman often takes a back seat in the daily running of the club. Because of the importance of the decision with regard to Isak, PIF wants to take control instead of allowing others to make the decision.
