Liverpool are making bold moves in their pursuit of Newcastle’s star striker, Alexander Isak, and could offer Darwin Núñez as part of a blockbuster swap deal, according to reports.
As previously revealed by FootballTransfers, the Reds view Isak as the perfect fit for Arne Slot’s system and are currently leading the race for his signature, despite strong interest from Arsenal.
Newcastle’s Champions League qualification could be a decisive factor in the Swedish forward’s future, with reports suggesting the Magpies may be forced to sell if they fail to secure a top-four spot.

To navigate Newcastle’s hefty €100 million valuation, Liverpool are reportedly exploring a swap deal involving Núñez. Despite his inconsistency at Anfield, the Uruguayan striker remains highly rated, particularly by Newcastle’s Saudi owners, who previously attempted to sign him for Al-Nassr in January.
With Arsenal also eyeing Isak and Newcastle potentially losing out on Sporting CP’s Viktor Gyökeres, the summer transfer window is shaping up to be a fierce battle for top-tier strikers. Will Liverpool’s bold swap deal push them ahead in the race for Isak? Stay tuned.
