Miggys First Goal Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 Newcastle United will give serious consideration to letting Alexander Isak sign for Liverpool if they receive a bid of £130m on deadline day. In a rapidly shifting situation, Telegraph Sport understands that majority stakeholders Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund are, for the first time, willing to cash in on their star player as long as the money is good enough. Newcastle are waiting for Liverpool, who had a £110m offer rejected almost a month ago, to return with a second bid. They will make a final decision on Isak’s future based on whether they feel the size of the fee is too good to turn down. It is still far from certain that Isak will be a Liverpool player when the window shuts, but having insisted all summer that the asking price is £150m, the lowering of the price at which they would be willing to consider a move feels significant. Crucially, it is also thought the deal would not be contingent on Newcastle being able to sign a replacement. Newcastle’s recruitment team do not believe it is still realistic to expect Brentford to sell Yoane Wissa and have similar feelings about Wolverhampton Wanderers’ desire to hold on to Jorgen Strand Larsen. They are instead looking at possible alternatives, but have warned there are very few options left on the market and it will be extremely difficult to get someone in with so little time left in the window. If Isak leaves and Newcastle are unable to sign another striker, it will leave manager Eddie Howe desperately short of forwards who can play in a central role. Newcastle completed the £69m club record signing of Nick Woltemade last week and are excited about what he will bring to their offensive game, but have been frantically looking for a second striker in case Isak departs. But until it is known what is happening with Isak, Newcastle have not been able to make any bids for players and have instead been testing the market to see who might be available if he is sold. Analysis: Newcastle have got themselves into a ridiculous position To be in this position, so late in the window, is a ridiculous one for the club to have got themselves into, especially as they spent most of the year insisting Isak would not be sold. However, sources have stressed that nothing is certain with Isak at this stage, with Liverpool not yet indicating they are willing to offer the sort of money that will persuade Newcastle to sell. There is still a chance that Isak will be stuck at Newcastle after the close of the window if Newcastle do not receive a suitable bid. Newcastle’s board, though, are now waiting to see what Liverpool offer before PIF will make a definitive decision on whether to keep the player against his will or bank a British record transfer fee. It will lead to accusations Newcastle’s owners have been weak. Having insisted the player would not be sold for months, and even refusing to budge when the player issued a public statement demanding to leave on Instagram last week, the club would have allowed their most important player to leave in the final hours of the transfer window. Newcastle are understood to have shifted their not-for-sale stance after a delegation, led by members of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund and co-owner Jamie Reuben visited the player at his home six days ago. It is understood Isak again refused to commit to the club for another year in reward for a new contract, with a release clause that would allow him to leave for a set price in 12 months’ time. That raises the prospect that, even if the Sweden international is not sold on deadline day, he will once again agitate to leave in January. If Isak stays, Newcastle still intend to offer him a new contract with a release clause that will only become active in the summer of 2026. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted August 31, 2025 Share Posted August 31, 2025 All of this summer's nonsense aside, Liverpool are insane for not just paying the money for Isak. 25 year old, top 3 striker in the world. Gifted beyond belief. With Salah looking increasingly peripheral in games, he'd probably be their best offensive player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
