Mohamed Salah’s future at Liverpool remains uncertain as his contract approaches its expiration in June. At 32, the Egyptian forward has yet to sign an extension, raising speculation about his potential departure from Anfield.
With no agreement in sight, Liverpool’s management is preparing for a possible exit this summer. To fill the void, the club has been exploring attacking options. Initially, Omar Marmoush was considered, but his winter move from Frankfurt to Manchester City ruled him out as a candidate.
Now, Liverpool has shifted its focus to Alexander Isak, according to The Mirror. The Swedish striker has been in stellar form, scoring 19 goals in 24 Premier League appearances this season, and has also drawn interest from Arsenal.
However, Liverpool faces a major hurdle: Newcastle is demanding a staggering €180 million for their star forward. Even for a club of Liverpool’s stature, such a fee is daunting. If the Reds choose to move forward, negotiations will be crucial to lowering the price. Meanwhile, Newcastle’s willingness to part with Isak may depend on their chances of securing Champions League qualification.
