Liverpool's initial offer of £110M plus add-ons was rejected by Newcastle, despite Isak having agreed to personal terms with the Premier League champions.
The two teams will face each other tonight at St James' Park, and the atmosphere is likely to be intense. Some fans believe that the rivalry between the two clubs will lead to a higher number of fouls during the match.
Liverpool have not made a new bid for Isak since their initial offer, but they are expected to do so in the coming days. This is reportedly an attempt to secure Isak's services after tonight's match.
Some believe that signing Isak or a similar striker is essential for Liverpool to remain competitive in the title race this season. They face tough opponents like Manchester City, Arsenal, and Chelsea.
As the transfer window nears its end, Newcastle remains determined to replace Isak before selling him. However, they have struggled to land their targets, including Liam Delap, Joao Pedro, and others.
