Liverpool was overthrown in their first formal approach for Alexander Isak. Newcastle informed the Reds that they did not wish to do business on the 25 -year -old striker.
Liverpool’s offer would have been in the region of 120 million pounds Sterling – Isak now pushing hard for a move. It has been said that two factors maintain potential record transfer.
🚨2025 / 26 LFC X Adidas Range🚨
One – Newcastle assessment. Eddie Howe’s team does not want to sell Alexander Isak – but these are ideal circumstances. He does not want a new contract and asked to explore a transfer far from St. James’ Park this summer.
The Swedish Hitman is under contract until 2028 – which means that Newcastle is entitled to request significant costs. This price was declared to 150 million pounds Sterling – although an agreement could be concluded around the brand of 135 million pounds Sterling.
And second – Newcastle needs attackers. Having lost Callum Wilson, the only other specialist in the position that Howe has obtained at his disposal is William Osula not tested.
The Magpies continued forward throughout the transfer window, but were frustrated in their attempts to add to their striking line. But now, a breakthrough is on the horizon – which could in turn unlock the Liverpool agreement for Isak.
Indeed, several sources – including the initiate of Newcastle Keith Downie – reports that an offer has been made for Benjamin Sesko.
Slovenian, 22, is under contract at RB Leipzig, but we think that it will be authorized to leave this summer if certain conditions were met.
Newcastle competes with Manchester United for this transfer – but seems to have struck first.
“Newcastle has made an official RB Leipzig offer for Benjamin Sesko,” writes Downie on X.
“The offer is € 75 + 5 million euros – which corresponds to the evaluation of Leipzig. (65.5 million pounds sterling + 4.3 million pounds sterling) “Nufc presented their vision to the Slovenian striker and clearly indicated that they wanted the agreement to happen.
“Sesko plans his situation with Manchester United also at the table. It is open to both projects. ”
So now we are playing the waiting game.
Newcastle was rejected this summer by Joao Pedro, Bryan Mbeumo and Hugo Ekitike – who joined Liverpool for a first £ 69 million pounds Sterling.
Despite their status as a Champions League, Eddie Howe is struggling to attract star names in the northeast. Let’s see what is happening with Sesko – which is aligned as the crucial domino of the Isak agreement of Liverpool.
