Liverpool are actively looking to strengthen their attacking lineup for next season, despite manager Arne Slot already having a squad filled with offensive options. The club remains interested in adding another forward to bolster their attack.
On Sunday, the Premier League leaders secured a crucial win over Wolves at Anfield, with Luis Díaz and Mohamed Salah finding the net, extending their lead at the top to seven points.
However, Díaz could potentially depart this summer if Liverpool manage to sign Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak.
According to Sport, Liverpool may consider offloading the Colombian winger to facilitate Isak’s arrival. The Swedish striker has caught the Reds’ attention, and they are eager to add him to their squad.
Caught Offside reports that Newcastle has set Isak’s price between €150-€170 million, meaning Liverpool would have to break their transfer record to secure his signing.
Could Luis Díaz Be Sold?
To finance the move, Liverpool are weighing up the possibility of selling Díaz, whose contributions against Wolves were vital—scoring the opener and winning the penalty that led to Salah’s goal.
Sport also claims that Isak has a verbal agreement with Newcastle, allowing him to leave if an offer surpassing €100 million arrives.
This has put Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool on high alert, given the striker’s impressive form and potential for further development.
With multiple Premier League clubs in search of attacking reinforcements this summer, competition for Isak’s signature is expected to be intense.
