TEAMtalk on MSNJaw-dropping Alexander Isak to Liverpool transfer ON as sources drop damning Newcastle verdict
Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak is ready to move to Liverpool despite the Premier League champions signing Hugo Ekitike.
Liverpool passed up the chance to sign Isak when they instead chose to spend a then club-record fee on Darwin Nunez in 2022, but he could replace the Uruguayan, who has been strongly linked with a move away from Anfield in recent days.
Isak helped Newcastle United return to Champions League play and win the EFL Cup while scoring 27 goals and assisting six more in all competitions last season, and that would be a massive addition anywhere that he would potentially land if he does leave the club.
Alexander Isak is open to the possibility of a move away from Newcastle United this summer, with Liverpool the frontrunners to sign the forward, sources have told ESPN.
Liverpool have signed French striker Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt, the Premier League side announced on Wednesday, with media reports saying the deal was worth 69 million pounds ($93.65 million) plus add-ons.
