Despite reports in some media that Isak has agreed personal terms with Liverpool. A new source has confirmed that no deal has been reached at this stage.
Liverpool currently have financial room under the PSR (Profit and Sustainability Rules) and could close the deal if the right price is met.
The sale of Luis Diaz and the possible departure of Darwin Nunez could create significant funds to pursue serious negotiations with Isak.
Newcastle are still keen on a new contract with Isak. But are facing a major challenge: he is demanding a salary of £300,000 per week. Which is well above the club’s ceiling, and the Swedish striker has yet to agree to any negotiations.
It was reported that if the club had offered him a new contract last year. He would have signed it, but the deal never materialised.
Meanwhile, the Magpies are considering other options in case Isak decides to leave the team this summer. With the latest news being that they are looking to sign RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Cechko as a replacement.
The most expensive player in England is Chelsea midfielder Enzo Fernandez, who moved from Benfica for £106.8 million at the beginning of 2023.
