According to the latest update from the British media, Liverpool is trying to make great efforts in the Alexander Isak deal, including huge salaries and a player exchange plan to convince Newcastle to release.
After a busy summer with 6 rookies arrived at Anfield, Liverpool was shifting the focus to the next big goal, Isak. If this deal is successful, this will be a breakthrough turning point in the transfer plan of coach Arne Slot.
The Swedish striker is now considered as one of the top goalscores in the world and is certainly not cheap. In addition, Newcastle has absolutely no intention of selling this pillar player.
However, Newcastle's desire and financial reality are two different things. Many recent sources suggest that Liverpool had the opportunity to break the transfer record in the UK for the second time in the summer of 2025, this time with Isak.
According to the latest news, Liverpool is preparing to send the official proposal worth £ 120 million to Newcastle. The Merseyside team is also ready to put some players into the agreement, which may include Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott to “soften” Newcastle's stance.
Also according to Empire of the Kop, Liverpool is preparing to ask Isak a contract with a term of 6 years to the summer of 2031, accompanied by the remuneration will make him one of the highest paid players of the club.
Isak currently receives about £ 120,000/week in Newcastle, and Liverpool is willing to pay significantly higher, bringing the 25 -year -old star to the top 5 of the highest income in the team.
Not only that, Liverpool contacted Isak's representative to confirm the desire to bring him back to Anfield. According to sources, Liverpool has been interested in Isak from January this year and sees him as a “dream” contract for Arne Slot's dynasty.
However, convincing Newcastle is still a big challenge, especially when “injecting” has won tickets to the Champions League – important for Isak. If they did not reach the top 4, this deal could have been easier for Liverpool.
However, Liverpool is still determined to pursue to the end, despite Newcastle claiming Isak not for sale. The striker still has 3 years with Newcastle, and the club has a basis to confidently keep him. Isak also did not show wanting to leave, but the situation could change if his position changed.
According to the transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Isak did not refuse Liverpool and still opened with the ability to move to Anfield.
“Liverpool informed Newcastle that they were willing to spend £ 120 million for Alexander Isak,” Romano revealed. “I know that the player is not closed with Liverpool. He does not prevent Liverpool from performing this move. Isak is still negotiating with Newcastle, because they want to renew the contract. But it is clear that he seems to be open to leaving.”
