Report: Liverpool preparing £100m+ offer to sign "world-class" striker after Wirtz

Liverpool are preparing a €120m (£101m) offer to sign Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak this summer, Fichajes has claimed.

The Premier League winners have been closely monitoring the Sweden international for months and are reportedly ready to present a ‘significant’ proposal to make him Arne Slot’s new number nine next season.

Fichajes claims the Reds remain informed on Isak’s situation at St James’ Park, as Newcastle are keen to extend his contract, which runs until June 2028.

Liverpool would reportedly be prepared to move quickly if contract negotiations do not come to fruition, having identified him as a key player in this summer’s attacking rebuild.

According to Fichajes, Liverpool’s offer of €120m for Isak would include a €100m fixed fee and around €20m in performance-based add-ons.

The Reds are likely to target a new number nine this summer if Darwin Nunez departs amid recent links with a move to the Saudi Pro League.

Isak, praised as ‘world-class’, enjoyed another prolific campaign at St James’ Park this season, scoring 27 goals and providing six assists in 42 appearances across all competitions.

He finished as the Premier League’s second-highest goalscorer with 23 goals, behind only Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, who netted 29.

Liverpool have already announced Jeremie Frimpong as their first summer arrival and remain focused on two more early signings to further bolster Slot’s squad.

The Reds are in advanced talks to sign Bournemouth full-back Milos Kerkez and remain keen on landing Bayer Leverkusen midfielder Florian Wirtz in what would be a club-record deal.
