"The Swede was notable in his absence on Monday night, as Liverpool beat Newcastle 3-2 in the dying embers of a frenetic meeting between the two at St. James' Park, in which the Magpies battled valiantly but lost to a last-gasp Rio Ngumoha goal. With Sky Sports pundit and Reds one-club man Jamie Carragher admitting on Monday Night Football that the situation is untenable on Tyneside and that Isak will have to leave, another bid is now in the works."
"Liverpool's first offer for Isak ranked at no.4 in FourFourTwo's list of the best strikers in the world right now was around 120 million, according to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, in a post on X (formerly Twitter). After this was rejected though, it was always believed that the Merseysiders would return to the table, with Newcastle struggling to source a replacement centre-forward."
"Now, Newcastle transfer expert Craig Hope has written a report in the Mail that says that the Toon have agreed a deal with Stuttgart for well-regarded German forward Nick Woltemade. German journalist Florian Plettenberg, meanwhile, has claimed in a post on X (formerly Twitter) that the deal is already done though FourFourTwo would be hesitant to state that the move is tied up, given the Magpies' drama in the transfer market this summer."
Liverpool have secured permission to pursue Newcastle striker Alexander Isak, who missed the recent 3-2 defeat at St. James' Park. Liverpool's initial offer near A3120 million was rejected, but the club remains prepared to return with further bids as Newcastle struggles to find a replacement centre-forward. Newcastle have reportedly agreed terms with Stuttgart for 23-year-old German forward Nick Woltemade, who impressed at the 2025 European Under-21 Championship with a hat-trick against Slovenia. Reports claim the Woltemade deal may be done, although uncertainty remains due to Newcastle's turbulent transfer activity this summer.
