Football transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has shared a significant update about Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak amid links to Liverpool. Speaking on The Debrief podcast, Romano revealed that he expects the Sweden international to attract serious attention in the near future, especially from top Premier League clubs, including Liverpool.
Isak, 24, enjoyed an outstanding 2023/24 campaign, scoring 21 Premier League goals and establishing himself as one of the most lethal forwards in English football. His performances have not gone unnoticed, and Romano hinted that a high-profile move could be on the horizon.
“Keep an eye on Alexander Isak,” Romano stated. “He is a very big name for the future. I expect top clubs, including Liverpool, to look at him closely. He’s on the radar, no doubt.”
Despite Newcastle’s desire to keep their star striker, Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations may force the Magpies to consider big offers. Isak’s form and age make him a prime target for teams looking to invest in elite attacking talent.
Liverpool, who are adjusting to life under new manager Arne Slot, are believed to be in the market for a long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah or possibly Darwin Núñez, should either depart. Isak’s versatility, technical ability, and goal-scoring instinct make him a suitable candidate to strengthen Liverpool’s front line.
Romano stressed, however, that no official negotiations are underway at this time. “There is nothing advanced yet, but if Newcastle receive a huge proposal, they may have a decision to make,” he added.
With the transfer window still open, Isak’s situation will likely be one to monitor. His name is now firmly in the spotlight, and clubs like Liverpool could test Newcastle’s resolve before the summer ends.
