Newcastle United are reportedly unhappy with the way Liverpool have approached the summer move for Alexander Isak.
Liverpool are interested in signing Alexander Isak this summer, and they are prepared to pay a British transfer record fee to get the deal done. The 25-year-old has been exceptional for Newcastle since joining the club, and he is undoubtedly one of the best players in the league.
If Liverpool manage to sign him, it will be a huge coup for them. According to a report by Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, Newcastle United are unhappy with their approach, and it will be interesting to see if they are willing to sanction his departure.
Liverpool are prepared to look at other options if a deal for the Swedish International does not materialise. Newcastle United are keen on Hugo Ekitike, and Liverpool could look to make a move for the French attacker if Newcastle decide not to sell Isak to them.
It is no secret that Liverpool need a quality striker this summer. Darwin Nunez was quite underwhelming last season, scoring just seven goals in all competitions. So, Liverpool need an upgrade on him, and Isak would be a sensational acquisition.
Liverpool move would be ideal for Isak
Isak is a world-class player who has proven himself in the Premier League. He deserves to compete at the highest level, and moving to Liverpool could be ideal for him. They could offer him the platform to fight for league titles and the Champions League trophy.
Although Newcastle United have shown great improvement in recent seasons, they are not quite at the level required to compete with elite clubs consistently. The opportunity to join Liverpool will be quite attractive for the Swede. It remains to be seen how the situation develops. Liverpool clearly have the financial resources this summer to get the deal across the line.
Newcastle United are among the wealthiest clubs in the world, and they do not need to sell their key players for money. It will be difficult for Liverpool to convince them. Furthermore, the fact that they are unhappy with the Liverpool approach will only make it difficult for the Premier League champions to get the deal across the line.
