Liverpool’s pursuit of Newcastle striker Alexander Isak has taken yet another dramatic turn, with fresh reports suggesting that Real Madrid are now monitoring the situation.
The Reds remain frontrunners in the chase for the Swedish forward and are reportedly ready to table a package worth around £140 million to lure him away from St. James’ Park. According to broadcaster Richard Keys, Liverpool’s offer is believed to include an initial £80m upfront followed by a further £60m next season.
But the saga may not be straightforward. Keys hinted that Real Madrid could soon join the bidding war, potentially complicating Liverpool’s push to finalise a deal before their Premier League clash with Newcastle next week.
📝 Newcastle, meanwhile, are holding firm, insisting they will only part ways with their star man for around £150m. Yet, with Isak reportedly frustrated and eager to force through a move, the Magpies may be forced into tough negotiations.
For Liverpool, time is of the essence. Securing Isak before facing Newcastle would be a major coup – but if the deal goes through, the striker could find himself lining up against his current employers in what would surely be a fiery showdown at St. James’ Park.
⚡ One thing is certain: this transfer saga is far from over, and with Madrid now lurking, the tension is only set to rise.
