Liverpool is one of the clubs very interested in a summer move for Alexander Isak, although it is not easy to keep him away from Newcastle, who has no intention of letting their star striker move away from St James’ Park.
Liverpool should sign a new striker during the summer transfer window, the wait being that Darwin Nunez will be moved. Sports director Richard Hughes identified Isak as one of the main targets of the club, and their chances that an agreement is concluded for having increased in recent days, because Arsenal seems to continue Isak, because they are rather turning to his international teammate Viktor Gyokerres.
However, this boost does not do much in terms of work on an agreement with Newcastle, which in no way wants to lose Isak. Because they set a minimum price requested of 150 million pounds sterling.

And it has now been reported by Athletics That Liverpool is “very unlikely” to break their record transfer fees by reaching this figure during the negotiations expected with Newcastle. As such, they should find a way to reduce requests from the Carabao Cup winners, such as the use of players who interest Eddie Howe, or they should go to other targets.
In the past few weeks, it has been reported that Newcastle has been interested in people like Jarell Quansah and Harvey Elliot, and if Liverpool seeks to use them in a Plef player, this bringing the figure necessary to the one who is achievable.
Despite this, it is clear that Newcastle will not give much room for maneuver to the clubs interested in Isak, and in particular those of the Premier League. Liverpool will have bread to get his man this summer.
