Liverpool have taken another step closer to signing Newcastle United's Alexander Isak, while the Magpies want to sign Nick Woltemade as his replacement but must beat Manchester United to his signature.

Alexander Isak has already taken some major steps to engineer a move to Liverpool, with the Reds still trying to secure his signature. The striker's future has been up in the air for a number of weeks after Newcastle received an initial approach earlier this month.

Alexander Isak wants to join Liverpool from Newcastle United, but no offer has been forthcoming just yet from the Merseysiders, and the Magpies insist their wantaway player isn't for sale
