Egyptian international Mohamed Salah has scored and assisted a number of goals and assists, and tops both Premier League rankings. From the left wing, Dutch international Cody Gakpo has also scored a number of goals, while Luis Diaz was highly decisive in the first half of the season.
However, in the second half of the season, Diaz has been away from goal. Diogo Jota has not fully recovered from his injury lay-off, and Uruguayan international Darwin Nunez has not shown much life up front.
Arsenal and Saudi Arabia have expressed interest in the Portuguese attacker and the Uruguayan forward respectively, and are said to be on the squad list for the summer. As a replacement, Liverpool are looking at a wide variety of strikers, with Newcastle United’s Swedish international Alexander Isak among their targets.
According to TEAMtalk, the 25-year-old striker, who has shown his scoring prowess in the Premier League, is open to playing at Anfield and is dreaming of a Champions League campaign.
He has scored 19 goals in 28 games this season, leading his club’s attack in the race for the top flight. In addition to his overwhelming decisiveness, he is also an excellent ball-control player, fighting with the centre-backs and linking well with his team-mates, which is what manager Arne Slott is looking for.
However, Arsenal have also shown strong interest and a battle could break out. In addition, he is under contract until June 2028, so it is obvious that an exorbitant transfer fee will be demanded. If Nunez could be sold for a higher price, which is not impossible, it is unlikely to happen.
Will the Swedish forward, who would be an instant asset to any club, be playing for another Premier League club next season…?
