🚨 BREAKING: Liverpool 'pulling out' of Isak pursuit after bid rejection
The Merseyside club tabled the offer without add-ons, making it one of the most significant transfer bids in their recent history. However, Newcastle's firm stance on keeping their star forward has brought negotiations to a dead end.
According to Jacobs, personal terms with Isak were not an obstacle — suggesting that the 25-year-old striker was open to the move — but the Magpies' unwillingness to negotiate made further talks redundant.
With their top target now off the table and the Premier League season just weeks away, Liverpool are likely to turn to alternatives. However, the Reds will still be boosted by the earlier summer arrivals of Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike
Newcastle United's hardline approach will be seen as a statement. Backed by deep financial resources and aiming to build on their Champions League ambitions, the Magpies are evidently determined to retain their best players — even in the face of record-breaking offers.

Stokes joins Superchargers as mentor
England Test captain Ben Stokes has joined Northern Superchargers in The Hundred as a mentor. Stokes, who played five games for Superchargers across the 2021 and 2024 tournaments, will join the men's team for the duration of this year's competition. In was announced in February that the all-rounder would miss the 100-ball competition this summer to manage his fitness before the Ashes in Australia this winter. Having sustained a shoulder injury that ruled him out of the fifth Test between England and India, Stokes would not have been fit to play in any case. However, the 34-year-old will still hope to make an impact by providing his expertise as he joins head coach Andrew Flintoff's backroom staff at the Superchargers.

Sunderland confirm loan signing of Chelsea youngster
Sunderland have confirmed the loan signing of Chelsea forward Marc Guiu. The teenager signed for the London club from Barcelona last summer, but made just six appearances across all competitions last term, most of which came in the Uefa Europa Conference League. There had been interest in Guiu from clubs earlier in the summer, but Chelsea were seeking a loan exit for the 19-year-old as opposed to a permanent move away. Guiu becomes Sunderland's ninth signing of the summer window as they prepare for a return to the Premier League next season. So far, they have made a handful of high-profile additions, including former Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka from Bayer Leverkusen. Guiu's move is a straight season-long loan with no buy option included, but he is expected to become an integral figure in the Black Cats' forward line as they aim to avoid the drop. 📸 Ed Sykes - 2024 Getty Images
