Former Newcastle United left-back Stuart Pearce has admitted he could see Liverpool signing Magpies striker Alexander Isak with Darwin Nunez involved in the deal.
Pearce has been discussing the Isak to Liverpool transfer saga amid strong claims that the Reds are very much in the mix for this ambitious signing.
There were numerous reports about Isak yesterday, with Fabrizio Romano posting about the Sweden international waiting for Liverpool to move for him in what could be a record-breaking deal.
Meanwhile, Sky Germany’s Florian Plettenberg added that LFC were progressing in talks with Newcastle.

Personal terms never gonna be an issue, as choice has been made weeks ago.

?? Talks between Newcastle and Liverpool over Alexander #Isak are progressing well. The player’s camp are very positive about the situation. Isak is hopeful that an agreement between the clubs can be reached. A record bid will be needed. #LFC

Alexander Isak transfer would be “incredible” for Liverpool
Pearce admits that Isak joining Liverpool would be an “incredible” deal that all but ends the upcoming Premier League title race.
The 25-year-old has been a world class performer during his time at St James’ Park, and it’s frightening to think what he could achieve playing alongside the likes of Mohamed Salah and Florian Wirtz in Arne Slot’s world class squad.
Still, Pearce also told the Chronicle that he could see NUFC doing well to bag Darwin Nunez as part of this deal.
“The title is over if Liverpool get Isak, yes,” Pearce said.
