Liverpool continue to be linked with Alexander Isak and may finally have the keys to unlock a Premier League record transfer.
It is claimed that Newcastle are targeting Eintracht Frankfurt star Hugo Ekitike, hinting that the Magpies are planning for life after Isak.
A new centre-forward would complete Arne Slot’s team and surely make them favourites to win the Premier League title again.
However, any fee for Isak would need to surpass the £116million Liverpool paid for Florian Wirtz.
That would raise a significant portion of the fee needed to buy Isak, although it would mean that Liverpool must sign a centre-back replacement.
Harvey Elliott
Earlier this summer, Elliott hinted that he would consider offers from interested clubs.
Clubs in the Premier League, La Liga and Bundesliga are said to be monitoring the 21-year-old’s progress.
Elliott did his market value no harm at all with some excellent performances at the Under-21 European Championship last month.
Ending the competition by winning the Player of the Tournament, Elliott justified Liverpool’s determination to receive at least £50m in exchange for his signature.
Wirtz’s arrival is likely to push Elliott further down the pecking order at Anfield, and a departure would free up funds.
Luis Diaz
Diaz has long been linked with Bayern Munich and Barcelona, although Liverpool are reportedly not keen to sell at this stage.
