Newcastle’s superstar striker Alexander Isak is very interested in a move to Liverpool, TEAMtalk understands, while we can reveal the Reds’ stance on a potential move.

The Swedish international has arguably been Europe’s best centre-forward this season, notching 17 Premier League goals so far, hence the growing interest in his signature.

Newcastle, meanwhile, are desperate to tie Isak down to a new lucrative contract to stave off the interest, with talks expected to take place in the summer.

As we have consistently reported, Arsenal are huge admirers of Isak and have him shortlisted as their dream target for the summer, but the chances of getting him are slim due to the Magpies’ price tag of over £120million.

Arsenal are not alone, however, and Isak’s links with Liverpool have grown stronger since former player Jamie Carragher’s comments, in which he urged the Reds to sign the 25-year-old.

Sources have revealed to TEAMtalk that Isak would be very interested in a move to Anfield. It’s no secret that he wants to play consistent Champions League football and compete for trophies, which would be almost guaranteed with Liverpool.

Newcastle are well aware of Isak’s desire to play at the very top and that’s one of the reasons why they are desperate to seal Champions League qualification. But the other question is whether Liverpool would sanction a huge spend on the Swede.
