Liverpool approach Newcastle over Isak as they look to break British transfer record
Journalist David Ornstein also confirmed the deal that would break the club and British transfer record once again in what is an incredible turn of events for Liverpool, who certainly have deep pockets this summer.
βLiverpool make approach to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle United. #LFC say no formal bid + well aware #NUFC stance has always been: not for sale. But communicated interest in deal for 25yo Sweden international worth in region of Β£120m.β
If the club did splash the cash on Isak, it would certainly mean that Darwin Nunez will depart the side as Liverpool would have to meet financial rules that would be weighing down on them after spending over Β£300 milllion in the matter of a few months.
Isak has scored 62 goals in 109 appearances for Newcastle, and it is no secret that Liverpool have wanted to sign the 25-year-old as their new No. 9 for some time.
Now, it is looking very likely that manager Arne Slot will bring in the Swedish international who would not hesitate to make his way to Merseyside ahead of the new campaign.
