The Merseyside club tabled an initial offer worth £110m for Isak which was duly rejected by Newcastle as they value the 25-year-old for £150m ($200m).

Liverpool have been warned that signing both Alexander Isak and Hugo Ekitike could create unwanted dressing room drama. The Reds are in the midst of a staggering summer spending spree, having already smashed their club record for transfer spending with £268million splashed out so far.
