Premier League club preparing ‘record-breaking deal’ for ‘dream’ Liverpool target

Liverpool have shown ambition this summer by completing the signings of Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong.

The Premier League champions are now about to add left-back Milos Kerkez to their squad.

Their transfer business may not stop their as their continue to search for a new striker to strengthen their attack.

While strikers like Hugo Ekitike and Victor Osimhen have been linked with a move to Anfield, it has been widely reported that their ‘dream’ target remains Newcastle United attacker Alexander Isak.

Newcastle have no intention of letting Liverpool target leave

The Magpies are now getting concerned about interest from the Reds in their star striker and they are willing to go the distance to keep him at the club.

The Swedish international has firmly established himself as one of the Premier League’s most potent forwards since his £63 million move from Real Sociedad in 2022, and the Magpies are eager to fend off growing interest from Europe’s top clubs.

According to The Times, Newcastle officials are acutely aware that Isak’s prolific performances have not gone unnoticed, and there is a genuine concern that a big-money bid could be launched for him this summer.

In anticipation, the club is ready to make an ambitious move by putting a fresh deal on the table that would make Isak the highest-paid player in Newcastle’s history.

The striker enjoyed a sensational 2024/25 campaign, scoring 27 goals across all competitions and playing a pivotal role in helping Eddie Howe’s side return to the UEFA Champions League.

He also helped the club win the Carabao Cup after beating Liverpool in the final, ending the club’s long term trophy drought.

Isak is set to be offered club record salary by Newcastle

While Newcastle are not actively looking to sell their prized asset, they are taking no chances.

With interest expected to intensify next month, the club’s hierarchy believes that securing Isak to a lucrative, long-term deal is the best way to reinforce their ambitions and send a message about their project.

The new contract is expected to not only reflect Isak’s importance to the team but also serve as a statement of Newcastle’s intent to build a squad capable of challenging in the future.

As one of the cornerstones of their future, keeping Isak will be crucial to Newcastle’s progression both domestically and in Europe.
