The Reds have brought in a number of high-profile signings with Hugo Ekitike, Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong and Giovanni Leoni headlining their seven deals so far this summer<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n But Liverpool are hopeful that they will be able to add two more faces to their squad before the end of the transfer window with both deals brewing for some time.<\/p>\n Newcastle striker Isak and Crystal Palace centre-back Guehi have been linked all summer and both deals together could set Liverpool back around \u00a3185m.<\/p>\n Sky Germany reporter Florian Plettenberg has revealed that Liverpool are \u2018ready to finalise the transfers\u2019 of Isak and Guehi with \u2018agreements\u2019 in place over personal terms with both players.<\/p>\n Plettenberg wrote on X<\/a>: \u2018Liverpool are ready to finalise the transfers of Alexander #Isak and Marc #Guehi by Deadline Day.

First with calls, to then sending new contract proposals, now with this direct meeting face-to-face with the player.<\/p>\n \u201cNewcastle are trying their best to change his mind, to keep Alexander Isak for one more season and then maybe let him go in 2026. But from [the] player side, from what I\u2019m hearing, the position is still the same.<\/p>\n \u201cEven in this meeting with the most important people, the board of Newcastle, the message from the player and his agents was, \u2018thanks, but I want to go to Liverpool\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cIsak maintains his position. Obviously Liverpool can\u2019t wait forever, they spent more than one month waiting for the green light for this deal to happen.<\/p>\n \u201cAt the moment, there is still no \u2018OK\u2019 from Newcastle, but Liverpool will insist. I think tonight, tomorrow there will be more conversations, let\u2019s see what\u2019s gonna happen.<\/p>\n \u201cLiverpool are not changing their target, they want Alexander Isak.\u201d<\/p>\n MORE LIVERPOOL COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 Earlier on Tuesday,\u00a0Romano said on his\u00a0YouTube\u00a0channel: \u201cWe are in crucial hours now. Time is running out, so obviously they need to find a solution \u2013 Liverpool, Newcastle, player side.<\/p>\n \u201cAs of today (Tuesday) lunchtime, Isak is still fighting to go to Liverpool, and he\u2019s still not changing his mind, still hoping for the move to happen to Liverpool.<\/p>\n \u201cSo Isak is pushing, Liverpool are waiting for Newcastle. What\u2019s going on on Newcastle\u2019s side? Newcastle are still in negotiations with Wolves for Jorgen Strand Larsen.<\/p>\n \u201cHe extended his contract earlier this summer and Wolves already turned down a proposal worth \u00a350m from Newcastle in the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n \u201cBut they are still there. Newcastle are still hoping and trying to find a structure for Larsen to join the club and be their new striker.<\/p>\n \u201cSo negotiations ongoing for Larsen to Newcastle, but not easy because Wolves insist on no intention to sell the player, but the deal is on for Larsen to join Newcastle.\u201d<\/p>\n Romano added: \u201cDon\u2019t forget they need two strikers, so also [Yoane] Wissa from Brentford remains a topic with the player keen on the move, giving priority to Newcastle despite approaches from Saudi Arabia. But still waiting on a club-to-club agreement with Brentford.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool are now \u2018confident\u2019 that they will wrap up a deal to sign Alexander Isak with the Reds…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":28713,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[76],"tags":[1268,5000,18,794,19,17,1009,6013,1270,5,795,132],"class_list":{"0":"post-28712","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-alexander-isak","9":"tag-crystal-palace","10":"tag-eire","11":"tag-home-page","12":"tag-ie","13":"tag-ireland","14":"tag-liverpool","15":"tag-marc-guehi","16":"tag-newcastle-united","17":"tag-news","18":"tag-premier-league","19":"tag-sports"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28712","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28712"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28712\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/28713"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=28712"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28712"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28712"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
