Liverpool has conducted a transfer research on Alexander Isak, but has a number of alternative goals such as Newcastle United this summer does not want to do business, despite a record offer that is possible
Liverpool already has six goals in mind if Newcastle remains firm in their position not to sell Alexander Isak. The Reds held an approach for the Sweden International on Tuesday and informed the magpies that they would be willing to pay a record transfer costs.
The £ 120 million advertised seems to have done little to wave Newcastle, but they remain adamant, they have no plans to sell the rush hour after he scored 23 goals in the Premier League last season. The side position of Eddie Howe has not changed, despite the suggestion that the approach to Liverpool is seen as an attempt to 'Unitle' Isak.
So far, however, there has been no bid from Anfield and the Arne Slot team is preparing for the possibility that they should look somewhere else. Such a road is in the direction of a Newcastle.
Liverpool looks at Hugo Ekitike who has retained an interest in the attacker and could make an offer if they give up Isak. Newcastle had hoped to sign the French Eintracht Frankfurt forward to play next to their Star Striker, and would have rejected an £ 70 million bid.
But Liverpool has requested a number of options. The Merseyside Club has asked for Ollie Watkins and Yoane Wissa from Aston Villa and Brentford and even Victor Osimhen discussed with Napoli in discussions about Darwin Nunez, the mail.
The club is also aware of the potential availability of Rodrygo of Real Madrid. The Brazilian attacker has so far had difficulty making an impact among the new boss Xabi Alonso and is said to leave if his wish is this summer.
The most surprising of everything, the name of Marcus Rashford was also raised in a conversation. The Manchester United Forward will be sold this summer, but there is little chance of switching to the rivals of his club without progress that goes beyond the prospect.
Rashford is currently training away from the first team of United and has spent the second half of last season on loan with Aston Villa. The International of England has no place in the plans of Ruben Amorim, but still has to earn a transfer because the Red Devils want to deliver £ 40 million for the attacker.
Liverpool has already done important signing sessions this summer in Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong. But the Reds still have enough things to do with the expected departure.
The current attacker Darwin Nunez seems to be leaving, while Luis Diaz could still leave, despite the insistence of the club that he is not for sale. Liverpool has rejected a bid of £ 58.6 million from Bayern Munich, but Diaz, 28, is supposed to be interested in making the move.
The club appreciates him more than £ 86 million (€ 100 million), but refuses to appreciate him, given their position.
