Liverpool will not lodge a second bid for Alexander Isak after their initial offer of £120million was rejected by Newcastle. The Premier League champions were keen on landing the Swedish centre-forward despite splashing £69m on Hugo Ekitike, whom they beat Newcastle to the signing of last month.

Liverpool have had an offer worth £120million including add-ons for Alexander Isak rejected by Newcastle and it has been claimed that the Reds have bottled the move
