Liverpool has made Alexander Isak its No. 1 transfer target this summer and is hoping to complete a deal, having previously lost out in pursuit of his Newcastle team-mate

Alexander Isak will be under immense pressure should he secure his dream move from Newcastle to Liverpool this summer.

Pundit Don Hutchison has now taken to social media to suggest another striker Liverpool can move to sign – Julian Alvarez. The former Liverpool midfielder believes that Atletico Madrid star Alvarez is the man Liverpool really need, rather than Isak.

Alexander Isak and his representatives could invoke Article 17 to force a move to Liverpool next summer as a free agent, when Newcastle would be due far less than the £110m Reds bid in compensation. Isak released a statement on Tuesday confirming he has no intention of playing for Newcastle again as a result of ‘broken promises’.

It was argued that Liverpool should recruit Julian Alvarez instead of Alexander Isaac. Liverpool are still chasing Newcastle United's Isaac, but Newcastle are holding out that they will not give up their ace.

BBC Senior football correspondent Sami Mokbel says he "can't see any other outcome" other than Liverpool making a fresh approach for Alexander Isak next week, but only after the Reds play Newcastle at St James' Park on Monday.
