Newcastle reject Isak bid from Liverpool, but saga far from over Liverpool have decided against making a second bid for Alexander Isak after seeing a €126million (£110million) offer rejected by Newcastle United. The Swedish striker, who is training on his own at Real Sociedad, remains keen on joining Liverpool and according to reports from Sky in Germany, Isak's camp are keen to get a deal done. Will Newcastle hold onto their disgruntled star, or will Isak's persistence pay off?

Ball in Paqueta's court over legal proceedings in wake of 'most complicated' betting case It will be left up to Lucas Paqueta as to whether he sues the FA for lost earnings and pushes for them to pay his £1million legal fees after his acquittal for spot-fixing charges, the head lawyer of his legal team has told Standard Sport. Alastair Campbell, partner at Level, who headed up the West Ham star's legal team throughout the 'unprecedented' near-two-year investigation has revealed he plans to celebrate the verdict with Paqueta and his family when the player returns to London. Campbell declared it the 'most complicated' case he has worked on. Paqueta was set to leave West Ham and join Man City for £85m on a lucrative deal in August 2023 before it first emerged he was being investigated for misconduct. Paqueta's move to City broke down immediately. ADVERTISEMENT Then, in May 2024, he was charged with four counts of intentionally influencing betting markets by deliberately getting himself booked in four Premier League matches between November 2022 and August 2023 — allegations which went unproven after a two-year investigation which ended last Friday. The result was made public on Thursday. Wrexham add more PL experience to side as Conor Coady joins Wrexham have signed defender Conor Coady from Leicester for an undisclosed fee, pending international clearance. Coady, capped 10 times by England, has agreed a two-year deal with the option of a further year and is the newly-promoted Championship club's seventh summer signing. Coady will join Ireland stalwart James McClean in Wales as the club look to consolidate in the Championship after three successive promotions. The 32-year-old told the club's official website: 'I'm over the moon. It's a special day, I'll be honest. 'We've all seen what the club has done over the past few years and for me to join is really special and I can't wait to meet the boys and get started.'

Liverpool make surprise decision over Alexander Isak pursuit after Newcastle bid rejected
The Premier League champions believe the swiftness and clarity of Newcastle's response means it would be futile to up their club record offer for the striker. Liverpool, who had made an inquiry for the 25-year-old last month, stepped up their interest in the Newcastle top scorer as they looked to take their summer spending up towards €460m (£400m). But the Carabao Cup winners had long maintained their top scorer was not for sale and they immediately rebuffed turned Liverpool's bid down. Isak had told them he wanted to explore the possibility of a move, leading manager Eddie Howe to omit him from Newcastle's friendly defeat to Celtic because of the speculation and admit the forward's future was out of his hands. The Sweden international is missing United's pre-season tour of Asia with what the club called a minor thigh injury and has trained with his former club Real Sociedad this week in an attempt to regain fitness. Liverpool are determined to be ambitious in their recruitment and head coach Arne Slot has said they will target high-quality players. They have already bought one striker, Hugo Ekitike, for €79m this summer, purchasing a player Newcastle had tried to purchase, as well as the €114m club record buy Florian Wirtz and full-backs Milos Kerkez and Jeremie Frimpong. However, they also sold winger Luis Diaz, who spent some of last season operating as a centre-forward, to Bayern Munich this week for €75m and there could be further departures among attackers, with doubts about the futures of Federico Chiesa and Darwin Nunez. Newcastle have not got a ready-made replacement for Isak and, after Callum Wilson left the club, have fewer strikers than they did last season. Howe has been frustrated in his attempts to buy a host of other forwards, including Liam Delap, Joao Pedro and Bryan Mbeumo but while Newcastle are interested in Brentford's Yoane Wissa, they are yet to conclude a deal for him, while their only major signing this transfer window is winger Anthony Elanga. Isak scored 23 Premier League goals for Newcastle last season as well as a Carabao Cup final strike against Liverpool. He has three years left on his contract at Newcastle but is now unlikely to sign an extension.
