Liverpool ready to offer £34m for Alexander Isak signing (reliability: 4 stars)

Liverpool are willing to line up a €40m (£34m) bid to sign Swedish striker Alexander Isak from Real Sociedad next year, as per Spanish outlet El Nacional.

Jurgen Klopp is keen on the 22-year-old forward, who has been a long-term target for his side.

With Roberto Firmino now in his thirties and Divock Origi a squad player, Klopp wants to sign a quality young striker to strengthen his frontline.

Isak signed a new contract with Sociedad earlier this year, meaning prying him away could be challenging.

The speedy striker has scored 5 goals in 13 appearances for the La Liga side this season, helping them challenge for the top spot.
