Liverpool continues to be connected to a British record transfer for Alexander Isak, but making Newcastle's own struggles in the market making a potential deal even more difficult to do
Alexander Isak could be left in the dark after the transfer deadline of Monday, while Newcastle's attempts to sign Jorgen Strand Larsen before the Summer Window closes the face of Wolves wolves.
Isak, 25, wants a move to Liverpool and is determined that he played his last game for Newcastle. However, the magpies do not want to sell their star -striker after a difficult summer window and still actively try to strengthen their attacking options for the deadline of Monday evening at 7 p.m. The only way in which the tone will apparently be the sale of the face is if they can sign two strikers in the coming days.
Norway Hitman Strand Larsen has emerged as a serious target in recent weeks after a failed attempt to take Yoane Wissa away from Brentford. However, two bids have already been rejected by Wolves' top brass, and the chances of a deal seem to be slim – although the Norway – International has announced that he would like to take such a step. The player and his representatives have announced it at the Molineux hierarchy that they would like to move to St James' Park and play in the Champions League.
But wolves have insisted that it will not be possible for him in the current transfer window. For his part, Strand Larsen has so far stated that he will not insist to leave. Wolves Boss Vorror Pereira insisted on Tuesday evening that he was certain that the attacker would not do something like that, although he admitted that “every player has a prize”.
It turned out on Wednesday that Newcastle was preparing an improved £ 60 million for Strand Larsen Stranden after seeing two previous bids, including a £ 55 million proposal that coincided with the two-doels Cameo of the striker in the Carabao Cup victory in West Ham.
Wolves are looking for his own striker to supplement Strand Larsen, who marked his first season in English football with 14 Premier League goals, instead of replacing him. If Strand Larsen is still a Wolves player after Monday evening, he will probably get a new contract.
News that another target of Newcastle will probably not move will not be welcomed in Anfield; Liverpool likes to remain the idea of ​​strengthening their new attack with Isak as the center of attention and is expected to return to the table with a second proposal in the coming days.
However, there is an acceptance that Newcastle is very unlikely to sell their topactive effects without securing quality signonies of their own in advance. Isak has to play for Newcastle this season and is unmoved about his desire to become a member of Liverpool despite conversations with members of the club's hierarchy before the two teams met on Monday evening in the Premier League.
