Liverpool’s Isak Chase Continues…
Liverpool is in hot pursuit of Swedish striker Alexander Isak with only two weeks left in this summer’s transfer window. It’s as if Liverpool is standing outside Newcastle’s window with a boombox, desperately hoping they’ll open the blinds and agree to negotiate. Previously, the Reds submitted a jaw-dropping £110 million bid, which was bluntly rejected by Newcastle. In the world of British-record transfer fees, the Reds are eagerly waiting for any sign of flexibility from Newcastle, who seem more focused on achieving their own superhero squad by signing two new forwards.
Meanwhile, Richard Keys from Sky Sports, when not busy trying to predict the weather with his mustache, suggests that Liverpool has a backup plan involving an £80 million offer now with an extra £60 million next summer. According to Keys, the only dilemma Newcastle faces is choosing which treasure chest to open. Adding a twist, Keys hinted Real Madrid might leap into this transfer saga, like a matador entering the bullring unannounced. Stefan Borson thinks Liverpool might snag a £15 million discount, proving once again that in football, haggling is an art form that would make flea market vendors proud.
