Newcastle United has officially turned down a formal offer from Liverpool for their centre-forward Alexander Isak, according to the reports from The Athletic.

Newcastle United have rejected Liverpool's initial £100m bid for Alexander Isak and the club's owners are being urged to stand strong if a further offer arrives

Ruben Amorim is said to have had Ollie Watkins as his No.1 target to cure United’s lack of goals but he appears to have been overruled. Newcastle, however, are, according to the Daily Mail, likely to move for the England striker should Isak’s wish be granted.
