Liverpool’s hopes of signing Newcastle striker Alexander Isak have hit a major roadblock after their reported £110 million offer was rejected. Sources say Liverpool have no plans to make a second bid, leaving Newcastle optimistic they can keep the Swedish forward, despite Isak’s desire to join the Reds. Reports suggest Liverpool may have “lowballed” Newcastle and “strung along” the striker during transfer talks.
Meanwhile, Manchester United have reportedly decided to sideline several players, including Alejandro Garnacho, Antony, Jadon Sancho, and Tyrell Malacia, who will be excluded from first-team training upon their return from the U.S. tour next week.
Brentford are considering a move for Rennes striker Arnaud Kalimuendo, and Crystal Palace are in talks regarding Nice forward Evann Guessand, who reportedly prefers a move to either England or Germany.
Fulham have renewed interest in AC Milan winger Samuel Chukwueze, while West Ham are pursuing goalkeeper targets including Botafogo’s John Victor, Leicester City’s Mads Hermansen, and Parma’s Zion Suzuki.
Other notable updates include Tottenham’s interest in Paris Saint-Germain forward Randal Kolo Muani and PSG reopening talks with Bournemouth over center-back Illya Zabarnyi.
