The Alexander Isak transfer saga seems to be reaching a boiling point, with Liverpool reportedly dropping a transfer hint that has left many speculating about the potential outcome. According to Fabrizio Romano, a renowned transfer expert, Liverpool’s silence on the matter doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not interested in signing Isak. In fact, Romano suggests that Liverpool is waiting for Newcastle United to open the doors to Isak’s sale before making another bid ¹.

Current State of the Transfer Talks

– Liverpool’s Bid: Liverpool’s initial bid of £110 million plus add-ons was rejected by Newcastle United. The Reds are now waiting for the right moment to make another offer.

– Isak’s Desire: Alexander Isak has reportedly made it clear that he wants to leave Newcastle United and join Liverpool. His agent has also stated that Isak’s mind won’t be changed, and he’ll never play for Newcastle again.

– Newcastle’s Position: Newcastle United is searching for replacement strikers, including Goncalo Ramos, Samu Aghehowa, and Jorgen Strand Larsen. Eddie Howe’s man-management skills will be put to the test if they try to bring Isak back in from the cold ¹.

Potential Timeline for the Transfer

Some speculate that Liverpool might wait until after their match against Newcastle United on August 25 to make a move for Isak. This theory suggests that Liverpool might have waited until after their match against Crystal Palace to make their move for Marc Guehi, and they might follow a similar pattern for Isak ².

What’s Next?

While it’s difficult to predict the outcome of the transfer talks, one thing is certain – Liverpool is keenly interested in signing Isak, and they’ll likely make another bid if Newcastle United opens the door to his sale. With Isak’s desire to join Liverpool and the Reds’ determination to sign him, the transfer saga is likely to continue unfolding in the coming days ¹.
