After having invested a lot in Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool could make a new madness by offering himself Alexander Isak. Financially, it is possible.
Animator No. 1 of this transfer window is Liverpool. The Reds have already spent more than 300 million euros this summer, notably by offering the two most expensive recruits of the year, Florian Wirtz (125 million euros) and Hugo Ekitiké (95 million euros). And the worst is that is not over.
Alexander Isak asked to leave Newcastle, and the Magpies would like to recover 150 million euros for the Swedish striker. And guess what is the hottest track? Liverpool! It seems crazy, but the Daily Mail confirms it. The Champions of England have the means to recruit (also) the former player of the Real Sociedad. “” They barely raised their little finger on the transfer market during the two years preceding this window, and they are well within the limits of the rules of profit and sustainability ”justifies the British daily.
This is also what the CEO of the Mersey club, Billy Hogan. “It doesn’t just happen; It takes years to prepare, explains the manager at The Athletic in an interview. One of the aspects on which we are constantly concentrating is the ‘virtuous circle’. We are trying to manage the club responsible for generating a maximum of income. This obviously helps us to reinvest more in the team. The problem is that if you only consider one summer, it probably false data. Last summer, many comments were issued that we had not spent enough … “
Liverpool has kept his money … so far
Last year, Liverpool had spent “only” 12 million euros to recruit Federico Chiesa. A very low sum on the scale of the Premier League, which had not prevented the team of Arne Slot from flying over the English season. Result, the boxes are full. “The Sport Mail reported several months ago that Liverpool had a ‘war treasure’ for transfers this summer and that five or six major recruitments would not be a surprise. So yes, they can afford Isak ”Ensures the Daily Mail.
The ball is therefore in the Reds camp. “If they do everything to have it and put the money on the table, it is likely that Liverpool would sign Isak this summer. Many will depend on the decision of Arne Slot and the sports director Richard Hughes to embark on the transfer. »» At the same time, there should be some sales, such as that of Luis Diaz (followed by Bayern), or those of Darwin Nunez and Harvey Elliott. But in absolute terms, Liverpool has the means to spend even more. And therefore add Isak to his hunting board.
