Premier League giants Liverpool have cooled their interest in Sweden international of Eritrean descent Alexander Isak after several failed attempt.
The Reds are executing an aggressive effort to augment their squad for the upcoming 2025/26 campaign in an attempt to compete for laurels, with Isak emerging as a priority target.
In an attempt to lure the forward, the Premier League giants submitted an initial offer of €120 million plus additional bonuses.
Having seen their bid rejected, the six-time Champions League holders has halted their pursuit of the enterprising attacker. Despite not ruling out the move entirely, the Premier League giants will be waiting for the Magpies to the initiative, having rejected their first bid.
The Reds are in no hurry to submit a fresh offer for Isak. The Premier League giants are waiting for the Magpies to secure a replacement before resuming negotiations for a potential transfer.
Newcastle have been pushing for Isak to sign a new, improved contract that would include a mandatory sale clause for next season. But Alexander himself is firmly against this idea and has staged a real boycott against the club.
Alexander Isak joined Newcastle from Real Sociedad in 2022 for €70 million and has since played 109 matches, scoring 62 goals and providing 11 assists.
