Liverpool’s pursuit of Alexander Isak has taken a significant step forward. According to Sky Sports Switzerland, the Swedish international has made his intentions clear. “Alexander Isak has made his choice: he wants to join Liverpool Football Club.”
Liverpool are expected to open discussions with Newcastle in the coming hours, having already notified the club of their intention to submit a written offer. The approach is measured. “The aim of which is to establish an initial dialogue to understand what would suit Newcastle’s Saudi leadership in order to secure a deal.”
An opening offer of around £100 million will act as a benchmark, allowing the Reds to assess Newcastle’s stance and begin detailed negotiations.
A direct meeting between both clubs is expected within 48 hours to clarify the details and intentions on both sides.
As talks begin, Liverpool will be keen to move swiftly and decisively. Isak’s preference is clear, and with a contract ready, the focus now turns to finding common ground with Newcastle.
This is the kind of statement move supporters have craved all summer. If Liverpool land Alexander Isak, it signals genuine intent to challenge again. The buzz around this deal feels different. Personal terms agreed, the player wants the move, and a contract is already finalised? That’s major.
Isak’s blend of athleticism, finishing and link-up play suits Arne Slot’s system perfectly. He is not just a goal scorer, he can lead the line, drift wide, and press from the front. Liverpool’s forward line needs that added dimension, especially with uncertainty around future exits.
The idea of Isak in red at Anfield is exciting. With talks scheduled and the player on board, there is genuine hope among fans that this one might actually get done. Strap in.
