Liverpool have approached Newcastle United to sign their star striker, Alexander Isak, to bolster their attack during the summer window.

Isak played a pivotal role for Newcastle, helping them reach the Champions League by finishing fifth in the Premier League.

Furthermore, the 25-year-old played a key role in the Magpies’ victory over Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final last season.



Isak has performed consistently since joining Newcastle from Real Sociedad in the summer of 2019, barring his struggles with injuries.

According to David Ornstein (via The Athletic), Liverpool have recently approached Newcastle to sign Isak to bolster their attacking department.

Liverpool have already strengthened key areas of their team by signing Florian Wirtz, Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong this summer.

However, they need a genuine goalscoring threat up front, apart from their regular goal-poaching legend and right-winger, Mohamed Salah.

According to Ornstein, Liverpool have communicated their interest to do a deal in the region of £120 million for Isak.

Liverpool have a strong senior team squad under Arne Slot that won the Premier League last season.

A potential signing of Isak is more than a massive upgrade to their squad, as it will have a psychological impact on the Premier League rivals.
