Liverpool are poised to join the race for Newcastle United's prized asset Alexander Isak, with manager Arne Slot eager to bolster his attacking options ahead of the summer transfer window. According to GIVEMESPORT, the Reds are undeterred by Newcastle's hefty £120 million valuation of the Swedish striker.

Isak, 25, has been instrumental in Newcastle's push for Champions League qualification, and his impressive form has caught the attention of several top-flight clubs. Liverpool, however, are believed to be among the frontrunners to secure his signature.

The Reds' interest in Isak is driven by Slot's desire to strengthen his attacking lineup. With doubts surrounding the future of Darwin Nunez, who has been linked with a move to Atletico Madrid, Slot is keen to bring in a top-class striker to lead the line.

Chelsea are also expected to enter the fray, with head coach Enzo Maresca seeking to upgrade his attacking options. However, Liverpool's chances of landing Isak may hinge on Newcastle's Champions League qualification prospects. If the Magpies fail to secure a spot in Europe's elite competition, Isak may be more inclined to consider a move.

Sources close to the club indicate that Liverpool are prepared to break any potential transfer fee into manageable chunks over several years. This approach could help the Reds secure a deal for Isak, who is reportedly eager to compete in the Champions League next season.

As the summer transfer window approaches, Liverpool's pursuit of Isak is set to intensify. With several top clubs vying for his signature, the Reds will need to act swiftly to secure the services of the talented Swedish striker.
