Liverpool have submitted an opening bid worth £120 million, including add-ons, for Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak — but the offer has been rejected.
Sources close to the negotiations reveal that Newcastle is unwilling to entertain any offers for Isak until it secures a suitable replacement, a move that is not yet guaranteed.
Despite the club’s stance, Isak is pushing for a move and has made his desire to join Liverpool clear in discussions with the Newcastle hierarchy.
The 24-year-old Swedish forward has been a standout performer for the Magpies, attracting interest from several top European clubs.
However, Newcastle remain firm, signaling that they won’t allow their star striker to leave without first reinforcing their attacking options.
This saga is one to watch as the transfer window heats up.
