After signing Luis Diaz from blue-and-white-wearing Porto, Liverpool are going in all-out for another player who’s banging in goals for the blue and whites of Real Sociedad. The Anfield club will make an offer of around $77 million for Swedish forward Alexander Isak!I am convinced that Alexander Isak is the chosen one pic.twitter.com/BdBHFrvmfA— Yavuz (@yavuzafc) March 14, 2022 We suspect that the colour of his current kit wasn’t the only thing that attracted Jurgen Klopp into making a move. The 21-year-old skilful son of Eritrean parents has been making rapid progress in his career ever since he broke onto the scene at AIK Solna in Sweden as a 17-year-old. His height, skill and eye for goal made him an instant hit and he was quickly poached by Borussia Dortmund for nearly $10 million in January 2017. He played for the youth side there and was loaned to Dutch club Willem II without ever getting a chance to impress with the BVB first team. But then he made a great move – a transfer to Real Sociedad in a $16.5 million deal in July 2019. Sunday, 20.30: (2.05) Sevilla (3.30) Sociedad (3.80)Since joining the blue and whites from San Sebastian, Isak has bagged 41 goals in 121 matches and caught the eye of many top clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester United. But now, the highly reputable Spanish newspaper AS reports that Liverpool showed the most resolve to complete the deal for the player whose style reminds of Zlatan Ibrahimovic.DONE DEAL: Liverpool sign Colombian Dragon Luis Diaz for $50 millionConsidering that Liverpool are yet to make an official offer, Real Sociedad are happy to sit and wait for either of the other interested clubs to enter the bidding war which would likely drive the price even higher. The most the Basque Country club could get out of the deal, however, is around $100 million, which is the set value of Isak’s release clause.Luis Diaz has already settled in well since his move from FC Porto in January and is delivering on the pitch for Liverpool. Maybe it’s the colours – or maybe it’s the sheer quality.
