Swedish forward Alexander Isaac's future has once again become a hot topic of discussion. Newcastle's head coach Eddie Howe is doing everything he can to keep his key player, but for this, the club demands a significant sum. Specifically, both Liverpool and Al-Hilal clubs have decided to enter the fight for Isaac.
However, Newcastle is demanding a very high price. The English champions, Liverpool, tried to acquire him for 139 million euros, but the Magpies rejected this offer. They clearly stated that they will not sell Isaac for less than 173 million euros.
This amount was accepted by Saudi Arabia's Al-Hilal club, and they started the battle for the 25-year-old forward. Given the club's massive financial resources and existing terms, it is expected that their fight with Newcastle will be very serious.
Also, Newcastle faces the threat of losing the player, so the club is trying to keep him in the squad. Isaac himself is not against a new contract, but the club has to consider his salary demands.
Alexander Isaac is asking for 300 thousand pounds per week (approximately 245 thousand euros). If his demands are legally accepted, this could be one of the major threats for Newcastle. Currently, his salary is 130 thousand pounds per week. Head coach Eddie Howe has asked the club's management to reach an agreement to keep the player.
The future of this transfer will also have a significant impact on Newcastle's strategic plans and undoubtedly on the player himself.
