Liverpool FC could also be signing Hugo Ekitike, nevertheless it doesn’t seem to sign that their pursuit of Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak is over.
Alex Criminal of talkSPORT experiences that Isak is demanding £300k per week from Newcastle to increase his contract.
For reference, in response to Capology, the best earner at Newcastle is at present Bruno Guimaraes, incomes £160k.
It might be that he genuinely needs to greater than double his present wage (£160k), nevertheless it actually feels extra like a mischievous demand, figuring out that Newcastle will wrestle to satisfy that. I wouldn’t be shocked if and when he does transfer, his wages can be decrease than that determine. It’s not a switch request, however basically he’s telling Newcastle that they’re going to have to interrupt their total wage construction and provide different core gamers an eventual increase to maintain him. A really passive-aggressive approach of claiming “haha, I don’t assume so”.
It stays curious that Isak hasn’t been linked to different golf equipment, aside from Liverpool (Al-Hilal doesn’t actually matter, I am sorry), and there’s the sensation that one thing might nonetheless occur. In yesterday’s Switch Deal Sheet in The Athletic, journalist Gregg Evans, whereas updating on Liverpool’s pursuit of centre-backs together with Crystal Palace’s Marc Guehi, says that Arne Slot’s desire is to have two senior gamers preventing for each place. So theoratically, two strikers in Isak and Ekitike wouldn’t be an issue. And with Nunez, Diaz, and Chiesa all wanting prone to depart… something might occur.
What occurs subsequent, it appears to be like like Liverpool can be able to make a transfer for Isak, whether or not it’s this summer season or the subsequent.
