Liverpool prepare new offer worth £120 million for Swedish-Eritrean striker Alexander Isak

Premier League giants Liverpool are set to table a new bid for the acquisition of Sweden international of Eritrean descent Alexander Isak in the current transfer window.

Isak has been pushing for a move away from Newcastle United in the current transfer window, with Liverpool expressing keen interest in the attacker. Newcastle’s effort to renew Isak’s contract has proven futile.

According to reports, the Reds are ramping up pressure on Newcastle regarding the transfer of their star forward Alexander Isak.

Liverpool is set to table a new bid worth £120 million after previously offer of £110 million was turned down by the Magpies, considering the sum insufficient.

Meanwhile, Isak is in trouble at Newcastle United after missing the club’s season opener against Aston Villa.

He was not available when Newcastle United shared the spoils with Aston Villa in Premier League opener on Saturday as he continue to push for a move this summer.

The Magpies plans to discipline Isak for breaching club rules. As stipulated in his contract, Isak is expected to receive a fine from the Premier League club.

Isak joined Newcastle from Real Sociedad in 2022 for €70 million and has since played 109 matches, scoring 62 goals and providing 11 assists.
