Now what remains is the transfer that Liverpool have yearned for the most. The arrival of Alexander Isak. What once seemed like a wishful fantasy is now very much rooted in hope and reality.

Isak wants to leave Newcastle. Liverpool want to sign him. Newcastle don't want to let him go. However, at the end of the day, you cannot keep an unhappy player around forever.

Especially one that doesn't even go on the pre-season tour, due to a 'thigh injury.'

But before Liverpool can fully pursue a move for Isak, there is one step they have to do and one deal they have to pull off in order to make the dream genuinely feasible.

Liverpool have already spent a lot of money this summer. With Hugo Ekitike's arrival, they are approaching close to the £300m mark, which is a hefty sum.

At this moment in time, the sum that Newcastle want for Isak is around £150m. Realistically, Liverpool could afford the fee and be compliant with the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR).

However, they do have to make wiggle room for Isak in the playing squad. At this moment in time, Arne Slot's team is stacked with attacking talent.

With the arrival of Florian Wirtz and Ekitike, Liverpool have seven first team players who can play in various roles around the front three - before we even mention Ben Doak.

Three of those players, Darwin Nunez, Federico Chiesa and Luis Diaz face uncertain futures at the club. Which is why Liverpool want to sign Isak.

But in order for Isak to come in, a few of the players are going to have to leave and make way for the Swede.

And it looks like, Diaz in particular is now closing in on a move away from the club, to make room for Isak.

According to TBR's football correspondent Graeme Bailey writing on X, Liverpool are in 'advanced talks' with Bayern Munich over the sale of the Colombian. The report claims that the move is only going in one direction.

It is fully expected that Diaz will leave the club for pastures new, and the German giants now look close to securing their man in what will be a mega deal for both sides.
