While all eyes are fixed on Liverpool’s interest in Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, there’s movement behind the scenes that fans might not have expected. The Reds appear to have a solid backup plan — and it’s gaining momentum fast. 👀
According to fresh reports, the Anfield giants have stepped up their pursuit of another proven Premier League striker — one who recently held talks with Liverpool representatives in Paris. Sources suggest a bid in the region of €50m–€60m (£43m–£52m) has been prepared to lure the forward away from Crystal Palace. 📝💼
But Liverpool aren’t alone in this chase. Both AC Milan and Manchester United are keeping close tabs on the French striker, whose contract negotiations with Palace have reportedly stalled since late last year. With just two years left on his current deal, a summer switch seems increasingly plausible. ⌛
The striker, who has netted 30 league goals in two seasons, has drawn praise for his clinical finishing — a quality Liverpool could find invaluable if talks with Newcastle over Isak collapse. Even Jamie Carragher has praised the forward’s ability to deliver at the highest level. 🎯💬
While Liverpool continue to monitor the situation, insiders believe nothing is concrete just yet. According to CaughtOffside’s Mark Brus, discussions remain at an early stage, and a contract renewal with Palace hasn’t been ruled out either. 🤝❓
Still, with the Community Shield clash on August 10 approaching, a potential showdown between the Reds and Crystal Palace could carry more weight than expected — especially if transfer talks take a dramatic turn in the coming weeks. 📆🔥
Could this powerful French striker be Liverpool’s unexpected solution if Isak proves out of reach? Stay tuned — the summer window is far from over. 👀🔄
