Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has shared his thoughts on the matter, stating that he doesn't think Liverpool should spend £150M on Isak. Carragher believes that the club is being reckless in the transfer market and is spending for the sake of it. He thinks that Liverpool's spending doesn't feel like the club's usual approach, especially with the recent signings of Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Hugo Ekitike, and Giorgi Mamardashvili, which have cost over £200M.
Carragher's concerns are partly due to the fact that Liverpool already signed a striker, Hugo Ekitike, and he thinks it doesn't feel right to spend another £120 million on Isak. He believes that the club's plan doesn't seem to be well-thought-out, and that they are buying players without having a clear strategy in mind.
Newcastle are prepared to receive a second bid for Isak, but it's unlikely that they will sell him unless they find a suitable replacement. Isak is in a tricky situation heading into the new campaign, and it's unclear what will happen to him in the coming weeks.
