Liverpool are preparing a record-breaking bid to secure Alexander Isak, with FSG willing to go all out in a “whatever it takes” approach to capture the striker’s signature.
Liverpool is reportedly preparing a record-breaking offer to secure Alexander Isak from Newcastle United, aiming to outbid Arsenal for the striker’s signature. The Reds have been relatively quiet in the transfer market, with Federico Chiesa being the only addition so far this season. However, they’ve already reached an agreement with Valencia for Giorgi Mamardashvili, who will join in the summer.
Arne Slot is expected to be active in the summer transfer window, as three of his key players are in the final six months of their contracts. The team also needs upgrades in several positions. Darwin Nunez, whose £64m move from Benfica has not met expectations, is at risk of being sold after being linked with a move to the Saudi Pro League. Slot has reportedly grown frustrated with Nunez’s performances and is considering Isak among several replacements.
Isak has become one of the most sought-after strikers, and it’s believed that Liverpool is willing to make a significant bid to acquire him. Reports from Spain state that Liverpool is preparing a record offer, around €130 million, signaling their intent to compete at the highest levels of both the Premier League and Europe.
In addition, Liverpool is reportedly ready to make a move for 18-year-old Warren Zaire-Emery from PSG. The young midfielder, under contract until 2029, is being courted by Liverpool, with the club in contact with his agent, Jorge Mendes. Although Zaire-Emery is happy in Paris, the prospect of joining Liverpool is an appealing challenge for him. There’s also speculation that departures in the attack, such as Diogo Jota, could pave the way for more signings in line with Slot’s vision for the squad.
