Liverpool have no plans to make a second bid for Alexander Isak after having their £110m bid rejected, talkSPORT understands.
The Reds made the huge offer for the Swedish striker on Friday morning, but it was turned down by Newcastle.

And the nature of that rebuttal has meant the Reds have decided not to follow up with a second approach this transfer window.
Liverpool now regard another bid as futile unless Newcastle change their stance and contact them.
Personal terms over any potential deal are not expected to be an issue, as Isak wants the move to Anfield.
The Magpies want to keep their star forward, or at least source a replacement before possibly agreeing to sell him.

They have been pushing to bring in Benjamin Sesko, while Yoane Wissa is boycotting Brentford training as he eyes a transfer.
Liverpool backed up their extreme interest with a monster bid for Isak, who is training away from his teammates too.
The 25-year-old hasn't travelled on the Magpies' pre-season tour as he explores a potential move away from the club.
He is currently training at his former club Real Sociedad in Spain and Newcastle are understood to be aware of the situation.

Liverpool's opening offer came a week after Isak had admitted he wants to explore his options this summer.
But unless Isak's side now start negotiations with the Reds again, it seems they won't be coming back in with a second bid.

Liverpool's opening bid came after Newcastle fans made their feelings clear on Isak's situation.
A banner was pictured hanging outside the club's training ground, reading: "Isak is a pure rat."
Of course, this act won't reflect the entirety of the Toon fanbase, however, it shows that his reputation is now damaged to some.
There is little sympathy from a part of the fanbase, but one person who does feel for him is teammate Anthony Gordon.
Gordon had held talks with Liverpool over a potential move last summer, and it appeared to be close to completion.
However, nothing ended up materialising and he went on to sign a new Newcastle contract in October.

The England international has now opened up about that move and related it to what Isak is now going through.
Gordon said in an interview with the Daily Mail: "With PSR, I thought I was going to leave at some point in the window.
I’m a human being.”
He added: “I understand what Alex is going through.
"I hope everyone gets what they want in the end.”
