Liverpool splashes the money on the transfer market this summer and could possibly make Newcastle star Alexander Isak their latest signing of the big money
Liverpool is willing to avert their time to take a step for the feeling of Newcastle Alexander Isak. The Swedish attacker was identified this summer as a potential signing for the Reds while they want to strengthen their attack.
The current striker Darwin Nunez was associated with a switch to the Italian champions Napoli, who would leave Anfield. But a deal looked difficult, because Newcastle was not in the mood for selling, while they also placed an eye-watery asking price of £ 150 million on Isak.
But it seems that Liverpool actually has a plan to possibly close a late deal. The Liverpool Echo has reported that MerseSide Chiefs would like to keep an eye on developments as it looks now.
They believe that Newcastle may need money to finance an imminent spree on the market. The magpies hunt lucrative deals for James Trafford, Anthony Elanga and Joao Pedro – with a £ 100 million deal for Isak to help Newcastle pay three deals.
There is also the small issue of Newcastle's efforts to keep Isak in St James' Park. Previous reports have suggested that the magpies were willing to make the striker the best -paid player in the club's history and it is suggested that Liverpool would not have a problem to meet his requirements.
So it can be wise for the side of Arne Slot to actually avert their time to see how discussions are going. In the meantime, Liverpool can also have more freedom when it comes to PSR restrictions closer to the end of the window.
Their Mega money agreements for Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong Look up to enter the figures from last season and given the relatively low expenses of the Reds in the seasons, they have a lot of headroom, which means that another enormous fee could be affordable.
Eddie Howe did not speak last season to give guarantees that his star would stay ahead in the northeast. He said: “I never make those guarantees about a player and it is not to do with the future of Alex, but I would be foolish to sit here and do something like that.

“We want to keep our strongest players, I said that since I am here and I have been sitting on this chair. We have to try to keep our best players and get more good players to make us even stronger because the ambition of the club and everyone connected to the club is successful and that is the only way to get that.”
In the meantime, Isak has also confirmed his position on his future. He said: “I don't know much to be honest. From the club and from our side there are absolutely no discussions. It is just full focus on playing for me.
“It has been written how much I love the city and the club, how good I feel there. I don't think about the future. I just want to perform for Newcastle. Now we have won the cup, but we want to end strong and reach the Champions League matches. That is where my focus is.
“There is no reason for me to think about something else (other than Newcastle). I feel incredibly comfortable at Newcastle. The only focus I have is to play.”
