Deal 'closer than ever' as forward demands move
Liverpool's focus in the last few days appears to be on completing yet another incoming deal. It's been a record-breaking transfer window already - with sporting director Richard Hughes overseeing around £260m worth of spending. But the Reds want more. Alexander Isak is firmly in the club's sights - and could arrive for £135m in a British record deal. But simmering in the background are several mooted outgoing deals. 🔴 Shop the LFC Store 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today!

Tyler Morton - for example - is putting pen to paper on a permanent deal which will see him join Lyon for around £15m. Others - such as Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott - could see their Anfield tenures cut short if bidding clubs meet the Reds' asking price. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range . The 27-year-old arrived from Juventus in a deal that could reach £12.5m - signing a contract until 2028. Chiesa pushing for Serie A return But it's been a year to forget for the Euro 2020 winner - who has fallen out of favour in the national team set-up and barely featured for his new club. It's now being reported in Calciomercato that Chiesa has requested a return to Serie A - with Atalanta, Napoli and now AC Milan coming forward with their interest. 'Federico Chiesa is ever closer to a return to Serie A,' the report reads. 'On the fringes of Liverpool 's technical project, also in view of the next World Cup, the former Juventus player is reportedly pushing to return to Italy, convinced that only in this way can he find the consistency, confidence, and desire to play that he has in fact lost in England.' AC Milan deal unlocked A deal with Napoli has been on hold for quite some time - as it appears the Serie A title holders are unwilling to match the forward's contract demands. That leaves the door open to AC Milan. Should the Rossoneri successfully offload Samuel Chukuwueze to a Premier League suitor in the shape of Fulham then it could unlock their move for Chiesa. 'With the departure of Samuel Chukwueze, Milan could seriously insist with Liverpool for Federico Chiesa,' the report continues. 'The Cottagers could offer up to €20 million for Chukwueze, a figure that could encourage the Rossoneri to sit down at the negotiating table with Liverpool for Federico Chiesa.' © IMAGO - Federico Chiesa Liverpool

Newcastle Weigh Striker Options as Liverpool Circle Alexander Isak
Newcastle Transfers: Striker Search Intensifies as Isak Interest Grows Isak Unsettled Amid Liverpool Pressure Newcastle United are preparing for a turbulent few weeks in the transfer window, with Liverpool circling around prized asset Alexander Isak. The Premier League champions have tabled an opening offer for the Swedish international, but Newcastle were swift and resolute in their response. The bid was rejected outright, with the club reportedly valuing Isak at £150 million. That price tag, however, may not even prove decisive. Newcastle are unwilling to entertain any exit unless they secure a viable replacement. The striker has become pivotal under Eddie Howe and remains central to their ambitions both domestically and in Europe. Sesko Talks Ongoing Despite Setback Newcastle's top target to replace Isak is RB Leipzig forward Benjamin Sesko. Aged just 22, the Slovenian has drawn admiring glances from St James' Park for months. However, Leipzig rejected the Magpies' opening bid and talks remain delicate. To complicate matters, Manchester United are believed to be preparing their own approach for the striker, threatening Newcastle's pursuit. Photo IMAGO Aghehowa Considered as Contingency With the Sesko deal far from guaranteed, Newcastle have identified an alternative. Spanish journalist Eduardo Burgos reports that Porto forward Samu Aghehowa is now under serious consideration. 'Newcastle United is interested in the situation of Samu Aghehowa,' Burgos confirmed. The former Atletico Madrid striker is valued at €80 million, mirroring Newcastle's proposal for Sesko. However, Porto are reluctant to sell and may hold firm for another year. 'They have been monitoring his progress since the beginning of the year,' Burgos added. 'He is one of the options being considered for the forward position, although they have not yet made an offer. Porto wants to keep him for another year: they are asking for €80M.' Pressure Mounts in Final Weeks As Liverpool's intent hardens, and with Manchester United eyeing the same targets, Newcastle's transfer strategy is under increasing strain. Whether it is Sesko, Aghehowa or another name altogether, the Magpies may need to act fast to avoid being left behind in this fiercely contested market.

Midfielder set to make crucial step to join Liverpool
One midfielder is set to catch Arne Slot's eye and make a crucial step towards joining Liverpool in the process. Right now, getting someone through the doors to play in the middle of the park is not necessarily a priority for the Reds. Shop the LFC Store 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the away range TODAY LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! Sure, they are about to lose Tyler Morton. However, he only featured sparsely under Slot last season, so he won't be a huge loss. His minutes can be take on by Trey Nyoni, who has caught the eye in pre-season so far. However, long-term Liverpool will still want to sign a 'destroyer' in midfield. They tried to bring in Martin Zubimendi, who is that kind of profile, last summer and failed. Ryan Gravenberch has been converted to play the role, and he's done a stupendous job. Behind him, Wataru Endo has been an astute deputy and a loyal servant for the Reds. Ideally, Liverpool will want to add a more long-term solution to Endo's role in the team. The club's sporting director Richard Hughes will want to bring someone in who can really push Gravenberch for his position. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas away range Anfield Watch that Liverpool are interested in Mikel Jauregizar. He's someone very closely monitored by the club's scouts and high up on the shortlist of players Liverpool will look to target for that midfield 'destroyer' role. The 21-year-old is regarded as one of the best young midfielders in Spain. He's got great ability going forward in terms of his passing and he covers a lot of ground, with high energy and stamina. Both are crucial aspects when it comes to play under Slot, and being able to withstand the physical and technical demands of his style of play. Jauregizar's game intelligence is also very high, which often sees him picking up smart positions on the pitch and being able to intercept opposition passes. Now he's set to face Liverpool at Anfield in an exciting double header on Monday. This will be an opportunity for the club's scouts and coaching staff to see him at a closer lense. It will be an opportunity for him to catch the eye and make one crucial step closer to joining the Reds in the future. If Jauregizar plays well, we've seen it all before, the chances of him joining Liverpool will inevitably increase. Just take a look at previous examples of players who've caught the eye against the Reds and ended-up joining. From Sadio Mane while at Southampton to Dominik Szoboszlai while at Red Bull Salzburg and then while at RB Leipzig in pre-season. Then there is Takumi Minamino and Darwin Nunez. Or Alexander Isak for that matter, who could be joining Liverpool this summer. On Monday, Jauregizar has the chance to put himself among those names and take another step towards one day ending up at Anfield.
