It’s only been a few days since Liverpool announced the signing of Florian Wirtz and now have a new star in their sights.
After securing Florian Wirtz as the big signing of the summer on a €125 million transfer from Bayer Leverkusen, Liverpool have made another key transfer in their ambitious renewal project: the club is preparing a bid of almost €120 million for Alexander Isak.

The Newcastle striker has become the next big target for Arne Slot to bolster an attacking line that will undergo changes following the departure of Cody Gakpo.
The investment in Isak is no coincidence. Coming off a brilliant season with 23 goals and 6 assists, the Swede fits perfectly into the profile the new coaching staff is looking for: a striker with mobility, the ability to connect the game and a goal-scoring instinct. In Slot’s system, his presence seems ideal to take on the offensive responsibilities and become the focal point of the new Liverpool.

Liverpool aim to sign Alexander Isak
Isak has been one of Newcastle’s most prominent players over the past season, establishing himself as a complete striker in a league as demanding as the Premier League. His impact has sparked interest from several top clubs in Europe, but Liverpool want to come first with a bid that could be one of the highest in this transfer window.
The investment in Wirtz has already shown that Anfield has no intention of standing still. As a 22-year-old, the German was crucial to Bayer Leverkusen’s double win and will be the attacking brain of the Reds. Isaac’s arrival would complete a formidable attack, filled with young talent and great potential.
Liverpool have stopped looking back. With Slot at the helm, the Merseyside club is gearing up for a new era, where breaking the market is only part of the road to greatness.
