Swedish Striker Pushes for Move After Agreeing Personal Terms with Reds
Liverpool are preparing a decisive new offer for Alexander Isak, with reports indicating the Reds will table a bid exceeding £120 million to finally tempt Newcastle into negotiations.
Breaking the Stalemate
After seeing their initial £110 million proposal rejected, Liverpool are set to return with an improved bid that meets Newcastle’s minimum valuation. The Magpies have privately signaled they would consider a sale at £120 million or above, despite publicly maintaining their stance that the striker is not for sale.
Player Power in Play
The move comes after Isak made his intentions clear to Newcastle’s hierarchy, expressing his desire to join Liverpool. The 24-year-old has already agreed personal terms with the Merseyside club, adding significant pressure on the Magpies to reconsider their position.
“Newcastle don’t want to lose him, but if Liverpool meet their number, it’s out of their hands,” a source close to the negotiations told The Athletic. “Isak wants the move, and that changes everything.”
Why This Bid Could Succeed
Newcastle’s financial constraints and the player’s push for a transfer make this improved offer a potential turning point. The club has already begun scouting replacements, including Brentford’s Ivan Toney, suggesting they are preparing for life without their star forward.
For Liverpool, securing Isak would represent a major coup as they look to rebuild their attack for the post-Salah era. His combination of pace, technical skill, and aerial ability makes him an ideal fit for Jurgen Klopp’s system.
What’s Next?
With Liverpool poised to submit their new bid in the coming days, Newcastle’s response will determine whether this transfer saga reaches a swift conclusion. If the Magpies hold firm, the Reds may need to explore alternatives—but with Isak pushing for the move, the momentum appears to be in Liverpool’s favor.
One thing is certain: the next offer could finally break the deadlock in one of the summer’s biggest transfer battles.
