Rumours now of Elliot to Brighton for 40 mil. That would be great business imo straight after getting 35 for Quansah.

Frimpong is a better defender than Trent 12 and Wirtz a big upgrade on Harvey!!

Rumours building of Nunez to Napoli.

Do they have the money? Hope it’s not some bull$hit loan deal with a vague option to buy

Hope it happens, definitely need to offload Nunez.

We'll be into July next week, June has flown by, before you know it they'll be reporting back for training. City and Chelsea players will barely get a rest, they'll be out on their feet come next spring.

The pursuit of Isak must be among the most useless I've ever heard. You really think another PL club qualified for the CL will hand him over to the club?
He has many years left on his deal, Newcastle has ZERO need to sell and would demand a ridicoulus fee around 150-200 million and they would be well within their right to do so. It's just so assinine to spend ANY energy on that when there are other strikers out there.

Plus he's 28 years old. Poor old Isak doesn't realise he's being used as a distraction for the real business!

Football is becoming a circus, FIFA and UEFA competing to milk every penny they can, systematic of the culture of greed that has taken over the world in the last 20 years.

Isak is 25

26 in September which would give him atleast 4 years at top.

We’ve missed the boat on Isak, Newcastle would want £100m+ and I think our money would be better spent on someone younger and cheaper.

Choosing Nunez over Isak is probably the only transfer f@£k up klopp ever really made here. But we’ll cope.

I wouldn't want us to spend 150M or so on Isak, as Kewell said if he was younger like 22 then possibly. 150 for for a player whoes turning 26, better for us to find alternative.

Impossible to know what striker we will go for IF we go for one. So many names but nothing concrete yet and probably won't happen until Nunez is gone.

Liverpool look set to battle Manchester United and Arsenal for Viktor Gyokeres, with their pursuit of fellow Swede Alexander Isak looking doomed.

well, there are so many strikers options this summer, BUT Isak is not one of them. If anyone belive the club will fork out 150 million, after already spending almost 200 million, is sure smoking something.

According to Christian Falk via The Daily Briefing, Nick Woltemade now “wants to leave Stuttgart and reject VfB’s offer” amid reported interest from ourselves and other European clubs.

The 23-year-old forward, who stands at 6ft 6, has caught attention with his recent performances for Germany – including a hat-trick against Spain – and could be viewed as a cost-effective alternative to the likes of Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike.

Stuttgart are said to be demanding a minimum of €60m, and while “Bayern have an agreement with Woltemade”, Falk adds there have been “no negotiations with VfB Stuttgart until now”.

The player’s agency have already held talks with Max Eberl, Bayern’s sporting director, in Munich.

Liverpool could still be in the race

It remains to be seen whether we push forward with our interest, but it’s worth noting that we’ve already held “initial talks” over a possible move for the striker.

Liverpool have already signed Florian Wirtz this summer and the pair share a strong understanding from Germany youth levels, with the Leverkusen playmaker scoring in the same international match that saw Woltemade make his senior debut.

The Stuttgart man ended last season with 17 goals in 33 appearances in all competitions, boasting a shot accuracy of 50% and 4.38 shot-creating actions per 90 minutes – both better returns than the aforementioned Ekitike, Isak and RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko.

That level of productivity, coupled with his relatively modest asking price compared to Premier League peers, may offer Arne Slot another option up top, especially if we part ways with Darwin Nunez – something James Pearce has already hinted may happen this summer.

The possibility of landing a Bundesliga forward already familiar with Wirtz and capable of offering a very different physical profile to the rest of our attackers could be an attractive one.

As it stands, Bayern appear to have stolen a march, but with no formal talks between themselves and Stuttgart yet, this is a situation that could still evolve in our favour if we act quickly.
