Liverpool are confident to land highly rated Arsenal target this summer. The player currently plays for Newcastle United who want a British record fee for him.
The star in question is Alexander Isak who is one of the best strikers in the world right now. The Sweden international has been unstoppable since last season. He ended last season with 25 goals and 2 assists in 40 matches.
Isak has continued his fine form this season as well. He has so far scored 24 goals and picked 5 assists in 35 games. In addition, he helped the Magpies to win their first ever major title after 70 years by scoring in final against Liverpool.
Newcastle are very happy with Isak and have no intention to sell him. But, the player is keen to play in Champions League regularly. Hence, he has rejected the offer to extend his stay and can opt to leave in the upcoming summer window.
Liverpool confident to land Isak this summer
Isak is looked upon by both Arsenal and Liverpool. In addition, the player also has interest from Barcelona. As mentioned above, Newcastle want to keep hold of the 25 year old. As a result they are demanding as high as £150 million in order to make the player untouchable.
According to Rousing The Kop, the Reds are confident to land Isak this summer. They are hopeful to beat Arsenal and Barcelona in the race. In addition, they also feel that Magpies will be unable to keep hold of the Sweden international beyond this season.
Liverpool are very likely to part ways with Darwin Nunez this summer. In addition, they may also opt to sell Diogo Jota. Lastly, Luis Diaz will enter the final year of his contract and hence he might also get sold. These sales will help the club to generate the funds to land the Sweden international.
