Alexander Isak Upset as Newcastle Block £120m Liverpool Transfer ApproachLiverpool’s ambitious move for Alexander Isak has hit a hard wall, with Newcastle United determined to keep their star

Alexander Isak is reportedly unhappy with the current state of play at Newcastle United amid uncertainty around his club future. Liverpool approached the Magpies about doing a British record £120million deal but the board are determined to back Eddie Howe by keeping hold of the Swedish striker.

The Reds are recruiting from a position of strength having secured the Premier League title last season but know they must spend big to acquire their long-term No.9. They have whittled their search down to two players: Eintracht Frankfurt’s Hugo Ekitiké and Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak.
