Liverpool have been heavily linked with Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, but according to Fabrizio Romano, the Alexander Isak Liverpool transfer 2025 hype may be premature — or at least financially unrealistic.

After a sensational 27-goal season, Isak is one of the Premier League’s hottest strikers. He helped the Magpies lift the Carabao Cup and secure Champions League football, becoming a talisman for the Saudi-backed revolution on Tyneside.

But as interest from top clubs grows, Newcastle are standing firm. There’s no release clause, Isak is under contract until 2028, and the valuation is north of £150 million.

Newcastle’s Stance: Not for Sale — Unless…

Newcastle broke their transfer record to sign Isak from Real Sociedad for £63m in 2022. Since then, the 25-year-old has evolved into a complete centre-forward, combining pace, technical finesse, and a ruthless eye for goal.

But will he move this summer? Romano doesn’t think so.

“Liverpool would try to go for Isak if he became available, but from what I’m hearing, they see it as a very, very difficult deal.” — Fabrizio Romano

Liverpool’s Interest Is Real — But Isak’s Price Isn’t

With Mohamed Salah ageing and Darwin Núñez under pressure, Alexander Isak Liverpool transfer 2025 rumours make sense. Arne Slot’s side needs elite firepower — but the financials just don’t add up.

Liverpool have already splashed £115m on Florian Wirtz, and committing a British record fee for Isak would force them to offload major assets or abandon other targets.

What Isak Has Said
Isak has remained diplomatic, but his love for Newcastle is clear.

“There’s not much to say, really. I’ve commented on my situation and my security in Newcastle several times,”
“It’s been written how much I love the city and the club, how well I feel there. I’m not thinking about the future.”
— Alexander Isak, to Swedish press
