Novocastrian Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 1 hour ago, TRon said: It could well be Liverpool are tapping him up. We wanted him as well as Ekitike, who's to say they don't? I'm not saying they do FWIW, but he will find a club which will pay him top wages, I'm pretty sure of that. I think we'll offer him a better contract with a release clause of around £150m so we'll get at least another year out of him. Pretty obvious now Ekitike would have been his replacement.

By which time he'll be at Arsenal and worth 160 mil. Possibly 🤣 I think my point is more what's left amortisation of Isaks deal now and selling for 130 but spending say 90 means it just pays for itself if it was sesko we would be getting someone 3 or 4 years younger with no pedigree of prem goals we have had out of Isak. Can see why the club would demand more but depends how much of a stinker the player could kick up. Anyway enough of the hypertheticals hopefully he's here to stay.

Fee reports have been anything as much as 110m euro and as low as 70m euro so who knows what's going on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted July 22, 2025 Share Posted July 22, 2025 It seems pretty obvious we've told him and his agents under no uncertain terms he's not for sale this summer. Next summer is a different story, there will be a much bigger market for him if he doesn't sign a new contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That bloke has turned out to be a disaster. Not if the deal had a release clause which his camp were insisting. Would’ve been worse off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being an american sports fan and watching this bullshit is beyond infuriating. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
