Liverpool are reportedly gearing up for a massive summer swoop, with club insiders confident they can lure Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak to Anfield. New boss Arne Slot, keen to make a statement in his first transfer window, is targeting the Swedish forward—dubbed by some as the “best striker in the world”—as a marquee signing.
Isak, who boasts a goal every 116 minutes in the Premier League this season, remains under contract at St. James’ Park until 2028 and earns £120,000-a-week. However, Liverpool are willing to test Newcastle’s resolve with a potential £120 million bid—an offer that would make Isak the most expensive signing in British football history.
While Arsenal have long admired Isak, sources say they may be backing off, clearing the path for Liverpool. With the Reds already securing Jeremie Frimpong and eyeing Valencia’s Giorgi Mamardashvili, Slot looks set to reshape the squad as Liverpool prepare to defend their Premier League crown.
