Liverpool's Record Bid for Isak Falls Short: £120 Million Rejected
Newcastle United stands firm on its valuation of star striker Alexander Isak, rejecting a staggering £120 million bid from Liverpool – a move that could have shattered British transfer records.
Magpies Demand £150 Million
Liverpool’s official offer, including potential add-ons, was deemed insufficient by Newcastle, who insist on a £150 million valuation for the Swedish international. The club has made it clear that Isak is not for sale this summer unless their lofty price tag is met.

“🚨🔴 Liverpool opening bid for Alexander Isak was worth £120m package plus add-ons.
