Alexander Isak, the 25-year-old striker from Newcastle (contract runs until 2028) and Sweden, is one of a number of players who have been mentioned as being in Paris Saint-Germain’s sights for the mercato. But the Swedish international is thinking only of Liverpool, according to journalist Fabrizio Romano.
“Liverpool ready for record bid”
The PSG rumor mill was briefly back in action, and some may have dreamed a little. But it quickly died down and it’s pretty clear today. There’s no reason to believe that he’ll sign for Paris. A surprise can happen very quickly in the mercato. Still, it’s hard to imagine.
A number of media outlets and journalists agree that Isak has a clear preference for Liverpool, who may have the means to reach an agreement with Newcastle when the price tag is well in excess of €100 million.
Above all, we hope to see leads materialize from PSG. For the moment, Lucas Chevalier (23-year-old goalkeeper with Lille and the French national team) and Ilya Zabarnyi (22-year-old defender with Bournemouth and Ukraine) are the two players who seem to be approaching the capital.
