Aleksandar Isak, Liverpool transfer ‘Here We Go’ imminent! Will a record-breaking transfer fee be unleashed?

The Deteriorating Relationship Between Isak and Newcastle

The situation can be summarized as Isak’s ‘strike’. Isak, who strongly desires a move to Liverpool, has openly expressed his intention to transfer by refusing to participate in the club’s preseason tour and even rejecting team training. While he initially cited the unfulfilled promise of a wage increase, his actions have become more aggressive since Liverpool’s interest was formalized. Despite warnings from manager Eddie Howe and the club board, Isak seems to be crossing the Rubicon by refusing communication.

Why Is Liverpool Making an Aggressive Bet on Isak?

Why is Liverpool betting everything on Isak? Despite being 192cm tall, his agile dribbling, explosive speed, and proven scoring ability with over 20 league goals in the last two seasons are the reasons. According to Romano, Liverpool is ready to send a second offer that exceeds the all-time highest amount in PL, following their initial offer of £110 million (approximately 207 billion won) that Newcastle rejected.

Newcastle in a Dilemma, What Are Their Options?

Newcastle is facing the worst-case scenario. The team’s key striker is publicly demanding a transfer, disrupting the team atmosphere. Manager Eddie Howe is urging for a quick resolution, stating, “A clear decision is needed.” Newcastle maintains that they cannot let a player with a contract remaining go for a pittance, but ongoing discord could lead to greater losses for the team. Ultimately, the key will be how close Liverpool can get to the £150 million (approximately 282.3 billion won) that Newcastle desires.

What Will Be the Conclusion of the Transfer Saga?

The tug-of-war between the two clubs seems to be nearing an end. Liverpool has already reached a personal agreement with Isak, and only the transfer fee agreement between the clubs remains. If Isak’s transfer goes through, it will be a megaton deal that shakes the foundations of the PL, beyond just the movement of a single player. The eyes of football fans worldwide are focused on when Romano’s ‘Here We Go’ will become a reality.
