Alexander Isak’s potential transfer to Liverpool has been held up for the last few weeks.

Many still expect the Sweden international to become a Liverpool player by the end of the summer transfer window, but since the Reds haven’t made another bid just yet, it’s unclear whether that will happen.

If Liverpool did end up acquiring Isak’s services this summer, they’d be impossible to stop.

“I hope Newcastle do manage to achieve that [reintegrating Isak], I hope they have the strength and character to achieve it, and I hope that the player gets precisely what his behaviour deserves,” he said.

Even if Isak doesn’t end up becoming a Liverpool player this summer, they still need to bring in at least one attacker.

Of course, the likes of Ekitike, Florian Wirtz and Harvey Elliott can all be used on the flanks if needed, but each of them are much more effective in their natural positions.

With this in mind, if Liverpool don’t want to fork out the £150million needed for Isak, they need to turn their attention elsewhere as soon as possible; otherwise, they’re just one or two injuries away from a major crisis.
