- Chelsea and Arsenal Target Alexander Isak Wants Liverpool Move
Alexander Isak has been the subject of many transfer speculations since the turn of the year. The Swede has been in brilliant form for Newcastle once again this season, and Liverpool are frontrunners for his signature.
Alexander Isak has reiterated how happy he is at Newcastle and how focused he is on helping his side qualify for next season’s UCL. However, in the event of a move this summer, the former Sociedad striker favors a move to Liverpool.
Liverpool will be doing a bit of a squad rebuild this summer, especially after news broke that Trent Alexander-Arnold will be leaving the club to join Real Madrid.
Mohamed Salah’s contract is also ending at the end of the campaign, and the same goes for Virgil van Dijk. The Reds are looking to sell players like Diogo Jota and Darwin Núñez to fund moves for Alexander Isak and other players to improve their squad.
The 25-year-old, who has scored 23 times this season and provided five assists in all competitions, wants to sign for a club playing in and challenging for the UEFA Champions League regularly, and at the moment, that does not look like Newcastle United.
For Alexander Isak, The Magpies will be asking Liverpool upwards of £100m, which might be a stumbling block for the Reds.
Chelsea, Arsenal, and other top clubs around Europe are also interested in the Swede, and Liverpool will need to act fast and efficiently to avoid a bidding war this summer.
