But then why let Diaz go this week if this wasn't looking like a viable transfer option, I know it isn't the same position, but the calibre of player is similar.

He wanted out and Bayern offered amazing money considering his age. Not sure what’s going on with Elliott and Nunez but I’m pretty sure they’re supposed to leave too

We should now rename this thread the Isak Transfer Thread as it's the only interesting story for the rest of the transfer window, even Utd expressed an interest in him! 😂

That Man Utd approach for Isak is genuinely hilarious. They've done that with every player this year and being rebuffed.

@Liam Sota my view is it's all negotiating tactics. You don't bid for a player really unless you get encouragement from the club. My view is and the journos who're running the story, is this is obviously coming from Liverpool. We may end up walking away, but I doubt it. I purely believe a lot of this is just PR and negotiating tactics. Allegedly a few of the Twitter ITKs are suggesting Isak is about to hand a formal transfer request in, which ultimately I suspect Newcastle want him to do and so do Liverpool.
