aussiemag Posted July 19, 2025 Share Posted July 19, 2025 From Isaks point of view, let me move so I can maximise my earnings or pay me what I deserve. You can’t blame him for being frustrated. The club needs to sort its self out quickly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The constant pivot to doom-mongering is ridiculous. Liverpool have just spent €100m on Ekitike with a clear intention of playing him as a CF. It is ludicrous to suggest that Liverpool are now going to spend in excess of £150m on Isak to play him on the wing. If they do enter the winger market, depending on exits, they might go for Rodrygo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was fine for everybody that we could get both but it’s somehow outrageous that Liverpool might want both. There’s no suggestion at all Isak would be played on the wing.

I do think the fees involved it will be one or the other tho I'm fairly certain that Liverpool would not have acted so quickly on Ekitike if they were very confident that the door was still ajar on Isak. Even if we were to entertain the fanciful idea that Liverpool now break the bank and buy Isak as well, it would surely be dependent on Nunez leaving the club first? Selling Nunez is proving to be complicated for Liverpool and may very well drag on late on into the window, in which case it'll be too late to make a credible approach for Isak. If Liverpool are going to buy Isak, they better seal the deal quickly, because there's no way Newcastle go into a champions league season with Osula as their only recognised striker.

LaurentRobert Posted July 19, 2025 Share Posted July 19, 2025 After this Ekitike news, the only feasible exit now would be if a Saudi Pro League club came in with a £250m offer. A more realistic scenario is Isak signs a new 200k+ contract with the intention of allowing him to leave next summer if he wants out. I'm sure he'll survive one more season of Champions League football with us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erikse Posted July 19, 2025 Share Posted July 19, 2025 (edited) Stealing "Isaks replacement" (media words) from us doesn't exactly seem like a smart move if they were still hoping to maybe lure him from us, especially when getting Isak was already so difficult for them in the first place. Clearly they gave up on Isak? Edited July 19, 2025 by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ilovetoon8788 Posted July 19, 2025 Share Posted July 19, 2025 That isak statement by Howe is really worrying. Clubs don't do this, unless they are quite sure that the player is going to leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It still seems he may want the move and his head has been turned , let’s say for conversation wise it has - do wr keep another year and risk his value dropping as he’s down to two years and may not deliver like this year as his hearts not in It as much or do we sell now?

WinstonFC Posted July 20, 2025 Share Posted July 20, 2025 Midfielders: Szobozlai, Macallister, Gravenberch, Elliot, Jones, Endo, Bajcetic, Morten Forwards: Salah, Diaz, Gakpo, Wirtz, Nunez, Chiesa They are looking to sell Elliot, Endo Morten, Nunez, Diaz and Chiesa to fund more transfers. Spunking most of it on Isak is going to leave them with little to no squad depth. They also need another CB as they only have VVD, Konate and Gomez.

Real or something like that would be my choice. I suspect he wants to stay in the prem as the game seems to suit him more but no one is going to pay his proper value.

ExiledGeordie Posted July 20, 2025 Share Posted July 20, 2025 If he’s not on the plane to the far east then I’ll be concerned but I still say he stays for a season. Howe confirmed no official approach from Liverpool so they’ve clearly tried to unsettle the player and we’ll know soon enough if his head has been turned. I think he gives us one more season then goes. We can’t actually afford to lose him this summer though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
