Liverpool are progressing towards signing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, with reports indicating a verbal agreement between the player and Liverpool on a long-term contract. While a formal deal between the two clubs is yet to be reached, Isak’s desire to join Liverpool could accelerate negotiations in the upcoming weeks. The 25-year-old forward’s salary at Liverpool is expected to be comparable to that of Hugo Ekitiké, who recently transferred to Liverpool from Eintracht Frankfurt. Newcastle, however, are anticipated to demand a transfer fee exceeding £100 million for Isak, who still has three years remaining on his contract.

In parallel transfer news, Manchester United and Newcastle United are competing to sign Stuttgart forward Nick Woltemade. Initially, Woltemade appeared set to join Bayern Munich, but negotiations with the German club have stalled. Consequently, the Premier League clubs have expressed renewed interest in the Germany international, who is valued at about £40 million after an impressive UEFA Under-21 European Championship performance where he was the top scorer.

Additional transfer updates include Hoffenheim engaging in discussions with Belgian club Westerlo over United States international Bryan Reynolds, while Stuttgart is seeking new midfield options following their primary target, Giannis Konstantelias, signing a contract extension with PAOK until 2029.
