It's obvious! Liverpool's next Alexander Isak transfer will be extraordinary winger
Liverpool already have another Alexander Isak transfer on their mind.
Last summer's saga was relentless. For a large majority of the window Isak dominated the headlines. He made it clear to Newcastle United he wanted to go. He made it clear he wanted to join Liverpool.
It just took a bit of time, and the offer of a huge amount of money to convince Newcastle to sell him.
The way the deal was conducted and how it played out in the media will be a lesson learned for everyone. But ultimately it won't deter Liverpool from trying to sign Newcastle players again.
In fact, Richard Hughes may be coming for yet another Newcastle player this summer. With the way things are going Liverpool's next Isak transfer is becoming more and more obvious.
Liverpool need wingers and they need speed in their current attack. The Reds haven't really replaced Luis Diaz since he left for Bayern Munich, and they also haven't really added any wingers of genuine quality since Richard Hughes arrived at the club.
But that could be changing.
Hughes' first winger target in the summer of 2024 was Anthony Gordon. Liverpool came close to signing the winger at the time but ultimately Newcastle decided to sell Yankuba Minteh and Elliot Anderson instead, in order to meet the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR).
Last summer, Liverpool wanted to sign a winger but they held fire. Isak was the priority. They could have signed other wingers but they didn't.
Perhaps there was a reason for that. Maybe, they have been waiting all along to return to Gordon in the summer of 2026.
It's becoming clearer now that Gordon is exactly the type of player Liverpool need. He's tremendously fast and he's good in one vs one situations.
His four-goal haul against Qarabag in the Champions League on Wednesday night also proved that he can be very prolific.
He now has 19 goal contributions this season, including 10 in the Champions League and we are only in February. There's the possibility that he could reach 30 or even 40 at this point depending on how far Newcastle go in their European and domestic competitions.
Now entering his prime years at 24-years-old, he's becoming an extraordinary winger, and this is the time to buy him. It's the perfect moment. Given Liverpool also have homegrown issues and Gordon is actually a club-trained player having been released by Liverpool at the age of 12, he makes so much sense.
It's just so obvious. He will have to be Liverpool's next Isak transfer.
