Newcastle to finally sell Alexander Isak – This is what Liverpool would pay
Newcastle have given up in their bid to keep Alexander Isak.
Liverpool sealed a perfect Sunday with a 1-0 win over Arsenal, but news from St James’ Park could make sure that Monday’s deadline day ends exactly the same.
Liverpool have already had a £110million bid rejected for the Swedish superstar this summer, but Fenway Sports Group could finally get their man at the final hurdle.
Newcastle have opened the exit doors for Isak and laid out their demands.
Newcastle to finally sell Alexander Isak to Liverpool
Jan Aage Fjortoft revealed on Saturday that it was a “done deal” for Isak to make the move to Anfield, but that didn’t turn out to be the case.
But, added information makes it seem highly likely that Isak will be in red on Monday.
Luke Edwards of the Telegraph has reported that Newcastle will “finally” sell the striker for £130million, if Liverpool stump up the cash.
The Saudi owners at St James’ Park would seriously consider that offer, regardless of whether they sign another striker for Eddie Howe or not.
So far, Nick Woltemade is their only striker signing.

Arne Slot to add Alexander Isak to incredible Liverpool attack
There are no excuses for Liverpool not to get this deal done now.
It seems crazy to say, but after hearing the £130m demand, Andrew Hughes and FSG simply must cough up the cash immediately.
Adding Isak to Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Cody Gakpo, and not forgetting Mohamed Salah would be incredible, and the rest of the Premier League would be running scared.

- Premier League goals and assists: 64
Entering the first international break with the only perfect record in the Premier League was sensational, but adding Isak to that on Monday’s deadline day would be sensational.
The likes of Salah, Gakpo and Wirtz are nowhere near top level at this stage of the season either, so to add the world’s best striker would make that a frightening proposition for anyone in their path.
