Liverpool have been heavily linked with Alexander Isak from Newcastle United, and it will be interesting to see if they can sign the Swedish International before the window closes.
According to journalist Sacha Tavolieri, they are hoping to sign the 25-year-old striker, but they have already lined up potential alternatives if they fail to get the deal done. They could look to make a move for the Real Madrid attacker Rodrygo Goes if the deal for Isak does not materialise.
Rodrygo has been linked with a move away from the Spanish club this summer. He is no longer an indispensable asset for them, and Real Madrid could look to sell him for the right price. The Brazilian could be tempted to move on as well. He needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and sitting on the bench at Real Madrid will not benefit him.
Rodrygo could be a superb addition
The 24-year-old is highly rated across Europe, and he has the potential to develop into a top-class attacker. Liverpool could use a dynamic attacker like him who is capable of operating centrally as well as on the flanks. He will help create opportunities for his teammates and find the back of the net as well. He has already won major trophies with Real Madrid, and he knows what it takes to play for an elite club. Apart from his quality as a footballer, his winning experience will be an added bonus for Liverpool.
He is likely to cost a lot less than Alexander Isak as well. It will be interesting to see if Liverpool can get the deal done. The Brazilian will want to compete at the highest level, and joining the Premier League champions will be quite exciting for him. They could provide him with the platform to fight for trophies regularly. Liverpool are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they will be an attractive destination for most players.
Meanwhile, the South American has been linked with other Premier League clubs as well. It remains to be seen who they end up signing eventually.
