Liverpool continue to reportedly pursue a summer move for Alexander Isak, amid plenty of reaction to the Reds’ 2-0 win against Newcastle.
Today’s Main LFC Headline
Isak was ruled out of last night’s Premier League clash at Anfield through injury, which was a bit of good luck for Liverpool.
The Reds have been linked with an audacious summer move for the Swede, and according to the Times‘ Martin Hardy, they have a “growing interest” in him.
Arsenal are seen a long-term “suitors” for Isak, but Newcastle are understandably desperate to keep him, and his current deal doesn’t expire until 2028.
The thought of Liverpool signing the 25-year-old this summer is mouthwatering, coming in as an upgrade on their current central options.
For now, though, it may just have to be a case of wishful thinking!

Liverpool FC: On this day
On this day in 2022, Liverpool secured League Cup glory after a dramatic win over Chelsea in the final at Wembley.
Neither side could find a goal in 90 minutes and extra-time, with penalties deciding the victor.
In a memorable shootout, it was Liverpool who eventually prevailed 11-10, with Chelsea goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga missing the decisive spot-kick.
It was the Reds’ ninth League Cup triumph – they made it 10 a couple of years later, once again seeing off the Blues in the final.
Will it become 11 next month?
