Liverpool have been very active in the ongoing summer transfer window. The Reds broke their club transfer record when they brought in Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen for £100 million plus

The Swedish striker is eager to leave Newcastle and Arne Slot's side could land him alongside another elite forward, reports claim.

As Newcastle United prepare for a preseason tour in Asia, where they'll face the K-League All-Stars and Tottenham, they may also need to begin to prepare for life without their star striker, Alexander Isak.

Newcastle fans can feel justifiably angry by the notion that a team will waltz off with their No 9 with a flutter of eyelashes and a wad of cash. Isak is Newcastle’s best striker since Alan Shearer and is already one of the world’s elite forwards.

Alexander Isak has made no secret of his desire to join Liverpool, but his hopes of landing one of his favoured shirt numbers will depend on current Reds players

The transfer market has been set abuzz by reports that Alexander Isak wants to leave Newcastle United this summer. According to The Athletic, the 25-year-old striker even preferred to skip the club’s pre-season tour in Asia, although Newcastle officially cited fitness issues for his absence.

Arsenal have long been linked with Eberechi Eze and should make a deal happen over the coming weeks. The creative midfielder has only two years remaining on his Crystal Palace contract, potentially making him available for a bargain fee.

Eddie Howe’s latest comments on Alexander Isak will come as a huge encouragement to Liverpool in their pursuit of the Newcastle United striker.
