Jurgen Klopp is now a leading figure at Red Bull and he is central to their pursuit of Harvey Elliott – who can help finance Liverpool's striving for Alexander Isak
Liverpool remains enthusiastic about the landing of Alexander Isak, who has told Newcastle that he wants to search new – with the Reds who have already rejected an opening bid for the Swede.
They served a general in £ 120 million, but that was knocked back by their Premier League rivals. The magpies appreciate Isak closer to £ 150 million after he had seen him establish him as one of Europe's leading No. 9s since moved to St James' Park.
Liverpool has already spent more than £ 200 million, but was able to break the British transfer record for the second time in one summer. Their transfer efforts will be helped by more money that the club enters and former manager Jurgen Klopp is now head of Global Soccer for Red Bull and plays an important role in their recruitment.
Bild reports that Klopp in particular would like to bring Harvey Elliott to RB Leipzig with the Englishman tipped to continue this summer. Despite having options to stay in England, the German, who bought Elliott to Anfield in 2019, wants to attract him to the Bundesliga.
Elliott has seen his stock rise this summer after excel in the U21 euros with England, where he was appointed player of the tournament. He is looked at by people like Brighton and West Ham, but Leipzig represents an opportunity for him to go abroad.
Liverpool wants to leave around £ 50 million if they want to leave Elliott, who only started two Premier League matches in the previous term. That reimbursement would also represent pure profit and further strengthen their transfer Kitty for a renewed step for Isak.
Germany has proved to be an excellent environment for English talent to thrive. Jadon Sancho and Jude Bellingham, who both made their names at Borussia Dortmund, are shiny examples of how on the way to the Bundesliga can be extremely favorable for the career.
The 22-year-old acknowledges that he must be selfish with his next move and recently said: “If I had it my way, I would be here for the rest of my career, it's so simple. I love everything at the club. But at the same time I have to be a bit selfish with myself and see what is best for me.
“I have great ambitions, I want to get to the World Cup [squad]Keep being successful as a player. I think it's still something that I have to judge, I have to talk to everyone and judge the situation. It is clear that we have many new players who have arrived, so I am not sure whether it is blocking the path for me. It is something for me to decide and take a look. Like I said, just look at the situation. “
