Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe insisted that the Magpies are still waiting for a formal offer for notable Liverpool target Alexander Isak. The Premier League champions were reportedly tipped to make a record-breaking bid for Isak in the region of £120 million ($160 million) in the middle of July.

Liverpool have been given fresh belief they WILL sign Alexander Isak after a financial expert revealed the minimum price Newcastle will accept.

Alexander Isak will not be joining Liverpool or anyone else this summer as the Newcastle owners have ‘put the block on him leaving the club’. Isak is a dream target for Liverpool and it’s been widely reported that he prefers a move to Anfield amid interest from Saudi Arabia after informing Newcastle of his intention to ‘explore’ an exit this summer.
