Al Hilal has decided to go all in for Alexander Isak, and the deal could be closed at stratospheric figures. The Saudi club is willing to put on the table 120 million euros to secure the Swedish forward, who has already expressed his willingness to leave Newcastle and head to Saudi Arabia. An unexpected twist in the market that puts pressure on the English club, which did not expect to lose its top offensive reference this summer.
Isak, signed in 2022 from Real Sociedad for 70 million, has established himself as one of the most complete forwards in the Premier League. Last season, he posted outstanding numbers with 27 goals and six assists, which increased his value and attracted interest from top European clubs. In fact, Liverpool explored his signing in recent weeks, aiming to cover a potential departure of Darwin Núñez, but faced a firm rejection from Newcastle, who valued their star at 144 million euros.
Al Hilal Wants to Sign Alexander Isak
However, the emergence of Al Hilal has changed the scenario. The club led by Simone Inzaghi needs a reliable offensive reinforcement after failed attempts for Victor Osimhen and Darwin Núñez. Isak has not only considered the Saudi offer but has also given the green light for his transfer to be negotiated, a decision that could expedite one of the most expensive deals of this transfer window.
Newcastle knows that holding onto Isak won't be easy against the Saudi economic power. The player's stance will be crucial in determining the future, but for now, Al Hilal is moving quickly with the aim of sealing a signing that would make a major impact on the global market.
