Liverpool remain the 8/13 favourites to sign Alexander Isak this summer, with a price of 10/11 offered on the striker to remain at Newcastle.
The Swedish international has been involved in a tense stand-off with his employer and has refused to play for the side due to his desire for a switch to Anfield.
Newcastle have remainded firm in their intentions not to sell, but a report from the Telegraph on Tuesday stated that Isak has once again told them that he wants to leave.
That comes despite the intervention of chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan, who tried to create a deal that would see Isak willing to remain on Tyneside.
Alexander Isak to sign for before September 2 2025 (odds via Sky Bet)
- Liverpool - 8/13
- Not to sign or agree a contract with any other club - 10/11
- PSG - 11/1
- Arsenal - 22/1
- Any Saudi Pro League club - 25/1
Odds correct at 1240 BST (28/08/25)
Liverpool's interest included a willingness to pay a record British transfer fee for the forward, even after splashing out over £80million on Hugo Ekitiké.
Reports indicate the Isak will remain on strike in order to secure a move, although time is running out for that to happen with the transfer window closing at 7pm on Monday September 1.
The 25-year-old netted 23 goals in 34 Premier League outings last season, alongside scoring three in Newcastle's successful Carabao Cup campaign.
PSG are the 11/1 third-favourites in the market, with Arsenal a significant outsider at 22/1. A move to the Saudi Pro League club is seen as a 25/1 chance.
