Liverpool are keen to sign Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak and have had a bid rejected.
Arne Slot has remained tight-lipped on Liverpool’s pursuit of Alexander Isak.
The Reds are keen on signing the Newcastle United striker, with a £110 million bid rejected. Isak has not been training with the Magpies after they returned from their pre-season tour of Asia which he was omitted. Isak is aiming to push through a move to Anfield.
However, Slot has admitted that Darwin Nunez is closing in on an exit from Liverpool. He is closing in on a move to Saudi club Al-Hilal in a deal worth £46 million.
Slot said ahead of the Community Shield against Crystal Palace: “As you know, from me and I think every manager works like this, you never talk about players that are not yours. I can talk about Hugo, who we have signed and done really well until now.We are very happy with the squad and have every reason to be happy because we won the league last season.
