Alexander Isak would break Liverpool's 10-year ‘golden transfer rule' as huge hint dropped
Liverpool's pursuit of Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak marks a major change from the club's approach to transfers over the last decade as they look to bring in the striker Liverpool's desire to sign Alexander Isak represents the club breaking a decade-long trend of avoiding moves for proven Premier League strikers. The Reds have been cautious about buying established forwards from the English top-flight since signing Christian Benteke from Aston Villa in 2015. Newcastle United rejected Liverpool's huge £110million bid for Isak, who netted 23 league goals last season. The forward is training separately from Newcastle's first team and has reportedly refused to play for the club again, despite Newcastle's insistence that he is not on the market. It has already been a busy summer for Liverpool, with their lavish spending spree on players like Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike contrasting sharply with last year. However, the Reds are still working on more signings and a deal for Isak would mark a huge shift in the club's transfer policy. Back in 2015, Liverpool forked out £32.5m on Benteke from Villa, where he had scored an impressive 49 goals in 101 games. Despite high hopes for the Belgian at Anfield, he was sold to Crystal Palace just a year later after scoring 10 in 42 appearances. Since then, the club have avoided risking the same mistake. Benteke joined in the same summer as Roberto Firmino, who became a crucial component in Liverpool's attack and won the Premier League and Champions League during his time at the Reds. Brendan Rodgers also brought in Danny Ings from relegated Burnley shortly before signing Benteke. The following season, Liverpool signed Sadio Mane from Southampton, though the Senegalese star wasn't a traditional striker, frequently operating on the wing under Jurgen Klopp. The same case could be argued for versatile attacker Diogo Jota's arrival from Wolves in 2020. When it came time to buy a new centre-forward, the Reds chose to recruit Darwin Nunez from Benfica three years ago, instead of a Premier League target. Meanwhile, Dominic Solanke's move to Liverpool from Chelsea through a tribunal in 2017 doesn't match Benteke's marquee signing or Isak's possible record-breaking transfer. Isak will not feature in Newcastle's season opener against Aston Villa on Saturday. Newcastle boss Howe has dropped a huge hint over Isak's future and spoken honestly about the transfer saga's impact on his squad and admitted that his side have already been forced to adapt to life without Isak. "I don't think it's been healthy for us," Howe said. "I don't deny that's been a big challenge. Alex, for me, is one of the best strikers in the world – if not the best. To miss him from your squad leaves a huge gap. "I think morale was certainly affected early on during pre-season," he continued. "There was nothing I could do to affect that – it was always going to be there. "When you have a player that good who is not part of your group, it's difficult for the players to fully understand it and to know what's going on and how to react. "But, as time has gone on, there has been an acceptance this is the squad and we have got to make the best of the situation. That's always been my train of thought. "Whatever situation you're in, you have got to find a way and you can only control what you can control. We have moved forward and I've got to say the atmosphere of the group has been very good in the last couple of weeks."

Man Utd sign Rolfo on two-year deal
Manchester United have signed Sweden international Fridolina Rolfo on a two-year contract. Rolfo, who usually plays as a left-sided forward, was a free agent after reaching a mutual decision to terminate her Barcelona contract one year early. The 31-year-old joined Barca from German side Wolfsburg in 2021 and won four Liga F titles and two Champions League trophies, scoring 40 goals in 131 said the appeal of joining United was the Women's Super League, which she described as "probably the strongest league in the world right now". United finished third in the WSL last season, which qualified them for the second round of the Champions League. "I have been fortunate to enjoy lots of success at Barcelona and other clubs I have played for, and now I want the same at Manchester United," she added. Rolfo, who has also played for Bayern Munich, has 313 senior club appearances and 113 goals during her career. She earned her 100th cap for Sweden during Euro 2025 last month and has scored 33 goals for her country. Head here to get involved

Scotland's Ben Doak 'close' to £25m Liverpool transfer exit
With a year left on his current deal at Anfield, his future on Merseyside has been uncertain this summer. Now, Bournemouth are 'closing in' on the signing of Doak for a fee of £25 million, claims The Guardian. Read more: Liverpool signed the 19-year-old from Scottish Premiership champions Celtic back in 2022 for just £600,000 in training compensation. They are now set to make a tidy profit, with Doak having played for their first team just 10 times. In joining Andoni Iraola's side, Doak will link up with his Scotland teammate and fellow ex-Celt, Ryan Christie. He moved to the south coast in 2021 and has thrived since, winning Bournemouth's Supporters' Player of the Season award for his displays in 2024/25. Doak will hope for similar, if not even better, levels of success as he joins the club that finished ninth in the English Premier League last term.
