Newcastle are bracing themselves for another Liverpool bid for Alexander Isak, with TEAMtalk reporting fresh developments in one of the transfer window’s most significant stories.
The Reds’ initial £110m offer was rejected, yet with the striker pushing for a move, Liverpool must increase their proposal to have any chance of success. Newcastle continue to state publicly that they do not wish to sell, but tensions are growing behind the scenes.
Isak has made it clear he wants to leave St James’ Park, focusing firmly on a switch to Anfield. While talk of a £150m valuation has emerged, Liverpool’s stance is closer to £120m–£130m, which sources suggest may represent a more realistic deal.
Newcastle now anticipate a fresh approach in the coming week and accept that Liverpool could test their resolve again before the deadline. Many believe the Magpies are extensively scouring the market in search of a suitable replacement.
What remains clear, however, is that any agreement will be complex and hard-fought.
