With just **five days left in the summer transfer window**, Liverpool are ready to push harder than ever for **Alexander Isak**. According to **Fabrizio Romano**, FSG believe this is the “perfect opportunity” to finally secure the Swedish striker — a move that could define their summer business.
### Romano’s Insight
Speaking to DAZN Football, Romano confirmed that Liverpool’s stance is clear and unwavering:
“Liverpool have waited over a month for a breakthrough. There’s still no green light from Newcastle, but they will keep pushing. More talks are expected tonight or tomorrow. Their focus hasn’t changed – Isak is the player they want.”
On his YouTube channel, Romano doubled down, stressing that Liverpool see this as a **rare opening** in the market:
“Liverpool see Isak as their big chance in this market. No other clubs are seriously involved right now, so this could be their moment to move.”
### Newcastle’s Reluctance
Despite Isak’s public hints of wanting out, Newcastle remain firm. The Magpies already rejected Liverpool’s **£110m offer** earlier this month and are unwilling to sanction a deal without securing a suitable replacement.
The issue? Their search hasn’t gone well. Attempts to bring in Wolves striker **Jørgen Strand Larsen** have been turned down, leaving Newcastle short of options. Isak’s incredible record — **62 goals in 109 games** — makes him far too valuable to lose without a contingency plan.
### Liverpool’s Advantage
For now, Liverpool may have the edge. With **no other serious bidders** in play, the Reds believe they can force Newcastle’s hand in the coming days. Sporting director **Richard Hughes** is expected to lead intensified talks, with FSG backing a late push.
### The Final Push
The Isak saga is heading toward its climax. Either Newcastle soften their stance or Liverpool risk missing out yet again. One thing is certain: Liverpool won’t walk away quietly.
All eyes are now on Anfield and St. James’ Park as the clock ticks down — will Isak get his dream move, or will Newcastle hold firm until January?
