Fabrizio Romano has dropped an update on Liverpool\u2019s interest in Newcastle United star Alexander Isak, as they are \u201cvery ready\u201d to submit a \u201cnew proposal\u201d.<\/p>\n
Liverpool<\/strong> <\/a>have been heavily linked with Isak over the past year and they remain interested in the Newcastle star even after landing Hugo Ekitike for around \u00a380m.<\/p>\n Isak<\/strong> <\/a>has been mooted as a dream signing for Liverpool, who are unwilling to pass up on the opportunity to sign the world-class striker after he informed Newcastle of his intention to leave this summer.<\/p>\n The 25-year-old scored 27 goals in 42 appearances for Newcastle last season and is reportedly valued at around \u00a3150m as he is under contract until 2028.<\/p>\n But with Newcastle holding firm on their demands, Isak has spat his dummy out in an attempt to force an exit, as he has been training alone and missed his current side\u2019s opening Premier League game of the season.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Potter sack, Arsenal trophy, Liverpool record and more kneejerk reactions from opening Premier League weekend<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Liverpool have already had a bid worth a potential total fee of \u00a3120m turned down by Newcastle, with reports suggesting that they will return with an improved offer if\/when the Magpies land a suitable replacement or two.<\/p>\n In an ideal world, Newcastle would want Isak to remain at the club, but Romano has revealed the striker\u2019s latest \u2018strong message\u2019 to club chiefs.<\/p>\n \u201cOnto the big case of Alexander Isak. What I can tell you is that Newcastle have received another strong message from the player,\u201d Romano said on his YouTube channel.<\/p>\n \u201cOver the past few weeks, Newcastle have always tried to approach Isak to say \u2018are you sure there is not even one single way to continue together?\u2019 They even offered him a new contract with a record salary for the club that includes an exit clause to let the player go in 2026.<\/p>\n \u201cIsak again is saying \u2018no chance\u2019. Isak has no intention to change his mind and those close to Isak maintain the same position \u2013 only Liverpool.\u201d<\/p>\n Romano has also provided an update on Liverpool\u2019s stance as they are \u201cvery ready\u201d to raise their offer and their \u201cfocus is very clear\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cObviously, Newcastle need a replacement, maybe two strikers. At the moment, Brentford are still blocking Yoane Wissa \u2013 but Newcastle remain confident on receiving the green light,\u201d Romano added.<\/p>\n MORE LIVERPOOL COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 \u201cThen to find the new striker because they would need a proper number nine in order to give the green light for Isak.<\/p>\n \u201cWhat\u2019s Liverpool\u2019s position? Very silent, very quiet, but not sleeping on this one. Liverpool are ready to bid again for Isak. Liverpool will be very ready with a new proposal if Newcastle open the doors.<\/p>\n \u201cForget about Liverpool not bidding. They are very ready and this story is entering its really hot stages. Liverpool never approached any other striker and the focus is very clear: they are waiting to see what\u2019s going to happen with Newcastle.<\/p>\n \u201cThe player is very clear, the club is very clear and they are just waiting to be together as soon as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fabrizio Romano has dropped an update on Liverpool\u2019s interest in Newcastle United star Alexander Isak, as they are…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9768,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[1268,9,10,18,5277,13,14,6,794,19,17,11,12,1009,15,16,1270,5,795,7,8,9575],"class_list":{"0":"post-9767","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-alexander-isak","9":"tag-breaking-news","10":"tag-breakingnews","11":"tag-eire","12":"tag-fabrizio-romano","13":"tag-featured-news","14":"tag-featurednews","15":"tag-headlines","16":"tag-home-page","17":"tag-ie","18":"tag-ireland","19":"tag-latest-news","20":"tag-latestnews","21":"tag-liverpool","22":"tag-main-news","23":"tag-mainnews","24":"tag-newcastle-united","25":"tag-news","26":"tag-premier-league","27":"tag-top-stories","28":"tag-topstories","29":"tag-yoane-wissa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9767","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=9767"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9767\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9768"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9767"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9767"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9767"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
