The ongoing transfer saga surrounding Alexander Isak has taken another dramatic twist, with the striker reportedly refusing to sign what would have been a record-breaking contract extension at Newcastle United.
According to close sources, Isak was offered improved terms that would have made him one of the highest earners at the club, yet he declined to commit his future.
Adding further fuel to speculation, Isak was absent at kick-off in Newcastle’s latest game, raising fresh questions about his focus and long-term plans. Many observers believe this could be a strong signal that the Swedish international is holding out for a move to Liverpool, who have been heavily linked with him in recent weeks.
The Reds are said to be monitoring the situation closely, with their new management eager to strengthen the forward line before the window closes.
Fans of both clubs are on edge, with Newcastle supporters frustrated at the uncertainty, while Liverpool fans are growing in excitement at the possibility of landing one of the Premier League’s most talented strikers.
As talks continue, Isak’s refusal of Newcastle’s contract has left the door wide open for a potential blockbuster move, and all eyes are now on Liverpool to see if they will make the decisive call.
