It has been reported that Liverpool is getting ready to make a shocking offer for their top transfer target in the summer, which will involve the transfer of a massive player.
After another quiet transfer window for Liverpool during the winter period, fans have grown frustrated with the club’s lack of business in the market since Arne Slot’s arrival. This frustration stems from the fact that transfers have not been particularly active.
In response to the frustrations expressed by fans, the manager of Liverpool reassured supporters that the club had been quiet because they were content with the current squad, but that there would undoubtedly be signings during the summer.
And now, it seems that the Reds are getting ready to launch their first transfer bid of the year, and in order to secure a deal, they are willing to part ways with one of their own players.
Although there are a number of positions in which Liverpool supporters believe the club needs to improve, the position that represents the greatest need for improvement is probably the front line.
The Portuguese striker Diogo Jota is adored by fans; however, due to his injury history, he cannot be relied upon for an entire season. Furthermore, the back-up options Darwin Nunez and Luis Diaz have not been able to impress in the role this season, which means that a new striker might be required.
This viewpoint is reportedly held by club officials, who have come to the conclusion that Alexander Isak, a striker who is highly sought after by Newcastle United, is the ideal candidate for Liverpool. This view has been reported in multiple reports.
However, they will certainly have a difficult time persuading the Geordie club to part ways with their star forward, who has been estimated to be worth more than one hundred million pounds.
Football Insider has reported that Liverpool is considering including Nunez in a player-plus-cash offer in order to attempt to secure the transfer deal. This is being done in order to address the issue.
The Uruguayan international was reportedly acquired by Liverpool from Benfica in 2022 for a fee of £85 million, but his current market value is estimated to be somewhere around £60 million.
During the same transfer window, Isak made the move from Real Sociedad to Newcastle for a reported club-record money transfer of 63 million pounds.
Since that time, Nunez has made a total of 130 appearances for the Reds, during which he has scored 39 goals and assisted on 22 others. On the other hand, Isak has achieved 54 goals and nine assists in 96 games for the Magpies.
Slot will also face competition from Arsenal if they want to sign Isak this summer. Arsenal is also interested in signing the superstar in order to address their obvious need for a new striker during this summer. Slot will face competition from Arsenal.
