Alexander Isak Set to Join Liverpool as One of Their Top Earners
Alexander Isak is on track to become Liverpool’s third highest-paid player if his move from Newcastle goes through this summer. The Swedish striker has reportedly made it clear to Newcastle that he wants to leave, and Liverpool are eyeing a deal that could cost them around £150 million.
Although the Magpies initially insisted Isak wasn’t for sale, Liverpool turned their attention to Hugo Ekitike, signing him for £79 million. However, hopes of landing Isak have been reignited after he missed Newcastle’s pre-season tour of Asia, raising further questions about his future at the club.
According to reports, if the transfer happens, Isak would earn about £250,000 a week, matching Ekitike’s wages, which would place him just behind Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk on Liverpool’s wage list. Currently, Isak earns £120,000 a week at Newcastle.
Morocco coach Mohamed Ouahbi speaks on the Netherlands’ elimination from the World Cup.
The coach explained why the team was eliminated. “Morocco has gained everybody’s respect now,” Ouahbi said, adding: “It’s not because of what we’ve said. We’ve now shown it.
“We completely dominated a Netherlands team. We had 70% possession, more shots and more expected goals. We controlled the match. We wanted to stay calm, play our game and believe that if it went to penalties, we had an exceptional goalkeeper. We didn’t turn the match into a chaotic battle. We controlled it.”
Nigerian footballer and former captain William Troost-Ekong revealed the standout player for him in the South African team during this World Cup.
He shared that Mbekezile Mbokazi really stood out in the World Cup match against Canada.
Despite their loss, he praised the team’s performance. “It speaks volumes that Mbokazi [Mbekezile] was the best player on the South African team. I believe Okon also had considerable possession of the ball.”
