Everything points towards Isak joining Liverpool. It's just a matter of time. Not if it happens but when.

For Michael Edwards this has been a pursuit long in the making. His group of scouts and recruitment team have identified Isak as a target for Liverpool all the way back when he was playing in Sweden as a teenager at AIK.

They then wanted to sign him while at Real Sociedad but missed out on his signature.

Now, at the third time of asking, Liverpool will do everything to make the deal happen. And they are now on the verge of completing the move.

The biggest obstacle in the matter has always been Newcastle. They have been reluctant to accept the fact that Isak wants to leave and there is nothing they can do to stop him.

But finally there seems to be an acceptance on their part, and progress in bringing in replacements for the Swede.

This became clear in the latest flurry of updates on Friday. The first positive was that Newcastle are ready to finalise a deal for Yoanne Wissa as per Sky Sports' Keith Downie writing on X.

Wissa is just one part of the puzzle though. Newcastle want a younger forward to replace Isak. Their pursuit obviously ended miserably missing out on Benjamin Sesko.

However, they are now moving onto alternative targets. David Ornstein has reported in The Athletic that the Magpies are now working on a deal for Porto striker, Samu.
