Newcastle boss Eddie Howe is reportedly calm over rumours that Liverpool are eyeing their star striker, Alexander Isak. Informal discussions have already taken place between Howe and the 25-year-old Swedish international about his future, with more comprehensive talks in the pipeline.

Liverpool have been told a deal for Alexander Isak remains very much an open door this summer, after a significant triple update renewed Arne Slot’s prospects of landing his dream signing and with the timeline of a possible raid on Newcastle United coming to light.

Advanced talks are underway to recruit Brighton's Brazilian Pedro and they have even reached the offer stage. Fifty-million pounds is the first figure that has been placed on the table though the Seagulls have rejected this, holding out for £60m instead.
