Liverpool can expect a hostile reception when they travel to Newcastle on Monday amid their pursuit of wantaway Magpies striker Alexander Isak, while Manchester City and Tottenham face off in an early examination of their ambitions for the season.

Pundit Don Hutchison has now taken to social media to suggest another striker Liverpool can move to sign – Julian Alvarez. The former Liverpool midfielder believes that Atletico Madrid star Alvarez is the man Liverpool really need, rather than Isak.

Alexander Isak and his representatives could invoke Article 17 to force a move to Liverpool next summer as a free agent, when Newcastle would be due far less than the £110m Reds bid in compensation. Isak released a statement on Tuesday confirming he has no intention of playing for Newcastle again as a result of ‘broken promises’.

It was argued that Liverpool should recruit Julian Alvarez instead of Alexander Isaac. Liverpool are still chasing Newcastle United's Isaac, but Newcastle are holding out that they will not give up their ace.
