Newcastle has rejected a formal offer from Liverpool for Alexander Isak worth $146 million. Isak wants to leave Newcastle before the start of the Premier League season and has been training at his former club Real Sociedad.
Liverpool continues to have interest in signing Isak but are not inclined to bid again. Isak has three seasons remaining on his contract with Newcastle.
Newcastle has tried to sign Isak on an improved contract with a release clause next summer. The Sweden international spent three years at Real Sociedad before joining Newcastle for $79.3 million in 2022.
