Al Hilal coach Simone Inzaghi has requested the acquisition of Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak, reports Gianluca Di Marzio. The Saudi club are contemplating submitting a "substantial" proposal to persuade the Magpies to part ways with him.
Liverpool have maintained their pursuit of Isak while simultaneously advancing negotiations for Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Ekitiké, states Rousing The Kop, and would be willing to submit an offer for the Swedish striker if he showed interest in the transfer.

Barcelona are monitoring Newcastle striker Alexander Isak's situation closely as they remain hopeful of signing the Swedish forward in summer 2026. El Nacional reports preliminary discussions are underway for a deal potentially worth just €80 million (£69.2 million, $92.8 million)—half his current reported valuation.
