Arsenal, PSG Alerted as Liverpool Targets £150M-Rated Newcastle Star to Replace Darwin Nunez | OneFootball

The winter transfer window came and went, resulting in Alexander Isak staying at Newcastle United—for now. While there wasn’t much speculation about a move this winter, plenty of clubs will likely be eyeing him in the summer.

RMC Sport’s Daniel Riolo recently suggested that PSG, who have been linked to the Newcastle standout, per Fichajes, should make a serious push for Isak to strengthen their attack under Luis Enrique.

“Wouldn’t you go all-in on Alexander Isak if you were PSG?” Riolo said. “PSG could very well go all-in. Can we swap Ramos and Kolo Muani for Isak? Can we make a package like that? You also add Asensio to the package. And come on, I’ll throw in Kang-In Lee too.”

Meanwhile, Arsenal have shown some interest, but according to FootballTransfers, Liverpool are currently the most determined suitor and is leading the race for his signature.

CaughtOffside reported on Friday, citing sources, that Newcastle front-man Isak, Ollie Watkins, Marcus Thuram, and Mohamed Amoura are the four names that the Reds are looking at to replace Darwin Nunez.

Former Man United and Sunderland chief scout Mick Brown told Football Insider that Newcastle want £150 million to begin any negotiations for their top talent.

“So Newcastle are going to do whatever they can to keep him at the club,” Brown said. “They’re demanding £150 million to start negotiations, and that’s what it is, but I can’t see them letting him go. It might depend on him, because if he’s got the idea in his mind that he’s going to go somewhere like Arsenal, then it could be taken out of their hands.”
