Major Alexander Isak to Liverpool transfer update emerges as Reds know exactly how likely they are to sign him

TBR Football can exclusively reveal that Liverpool are confident that they can pull off a deal to sign Alexander Isak this summer.

Liverpool have ๊already contacted Isak’s representatives after he punished them i🦄n the Carabao Cup final, scoring the second goal in Newcastle United’s famo𝓀us 2-1 victory.

Both Liverpool and Arsenal hugely admire Isak and the Reds will have to fend off competition from multiple top clubs ꦜto secure his services.

In February, TBR Football uncovered that Isak is Mikel Arteta’s ideal signing at Arsenal and the Spaniard would be worried if Arne Slot’s🅠 side win the race for his signature.

Liverpool fans will be happy to discover that the club already have plans in place that could help them sign Alexander Isak over their competitors.

Liverpool confident about signing Alexander Isak from Newcastle

First and foremost, sources have told TBR Football’s chief correspondent Graeme Bailey that Liverpool a🐼re open to breaking the club-transfer record they paid to sign Darwin Nunez to bring Isak to Anfield.

However, Newcastle do not have a fee in mind to s🦹ell the Carabao Cup winner but a lofty figure of £120 million has ಌbeen suggested.

Isak is the Reds’ number one priority in the summer transfer window and they back themselves to defꦬeat Arsenal in🌄 a shootout to sign the in-form marksman.

The Premier League leaders are ready to make their presence known in the transfer market and with Liverpool h♛olding contracts talks with Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk during the international break — there is hope in the red half of Merseyside that they can convince both play🎐ers to stay put.

Arne Slot recently called Isak “unbelievable” and the good news for the Dutch tactician is that Liverpool are ready to offer players in exchange to Newcastle just to sign the revered striker. Joe Gomez, who Newcastle were interested in sig𒐪ning las෴t year as well as Jarrell Quansah, Harve💯y Elliott and Ben Doak are some of the names that have been mentioned.

While Liverpool are set to sell Nunez, he will🔴 not be offered in any deal involving Isak as the Magpies have no interest in bringing him to St. James’ Park.

How Newcastle chairman feels about selling Alexander Isak

If Arne Slot does manage to get his hands on the former Real Sociedad goalscorer, it would be fair to assume at this point that they will aut♕omatically be best placed to win the title next season.

Much like Salah, 🐲the 25-year-old would prove to be a true game-changer of a signing and furthermore, he is Premier League proven.

But Yasir Al-Rumayyan, Newcas🔯t💮le’s chairman has no intention of selling Isak to suitors like Liv༺erpool as well as Ars🍎enal and is unwilling to even entertain any bids for him.
