Park, but will not push for an exit from Molineux.<\/p>\n<p>If Wolves decide to reject a bid of \u00a360m, it remains to be seen whether that stance will remain, or if Newcastle will decide to switch to an alternative target.<\/p>\n<p>Wolves could plausibly highlight that Newcastle may soon receive anywhere between \u00a3120m and \u00a3150m for Isak, depending on Liverpool&#8217;s intentions.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, Newcastle were prepared to pay considerably more for Benjamin Sesko prior to his transfer to Manchester United than they are currently willing to shell out on Strand Larsen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"imgI\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Vitor Pereira pictured on July 30, 2025\" class=\"vanilla-lazyload article-image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/https:\/\/sportsmole-media-prod.s3.gra.io.cloud.ovh.net\/uploads\/2025\/08\/imago1064605175-1-68a6cce723cb.webp\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Time for Wolves to consider replacements?<\/p>\n<p>Wolves&#8217;
