After selling Isaac for 125 million, Newcastle shot three arrows to revise the front line, intercepting Bayern s prey

1:53am, 2 September 2025Football

Newcastle United ushers in earthquake magnitude operations on the transfer deadline: the club reached an agreement with Liverpool to sell Swedish striker Alexander Isak to Anfield for £125 million (including floating clauses). The deal set a new record for the Premier League defender's transfer fee (the original record was Diaz's 103 million pounds), and also made Isaac the second Premier League player to have a transfer fee of over 100 million after Bellingham. According to the agreement, Isaac will complete a physical examination today and sign a contract until 2030, with a weekly salary of up to 280,000 pounds.

Three deals build a new front line

155 million pounds to finalize Visa! Brentford's hidden second-share share clause

Joan Visa's transfer has finally settled: Newcastle and Brentford reached a £55 million deal (including 5 million floating), and the 28-year-old Cameroon striker will sign for five years. It is worth noting that Brentford added a 25% second transfer share clause to the transaction - if Newcastle sells Visa in the future, it will pay a quarter of the profit to the Bees. Visa contributed 19 goals and 5 assists last season in the Premier League, and his speed and finishing ability (4.2 shots per game) will directly fill the vacancy left by Isaac.

260 million pounds to buy the Wolves' striker! Larson stopped training and forced the palace and was rejected

Jorgen Strand Larson's transfer was at a deadlock: Newcastle's third offer of 60 million pounds was still rejected by Wolves, who made it clear that "not 100 million pounds are exempt from negotiations." Although the Norwegian international has refused to participate in training for two consecutive weeks and publicly expressed his "desire to join Newcastle", Wolves sports director Matt Hobbs responded toughly: "Larson is a non-selling product for the team, and we are renewing his contract until 2029." The 1.93-meter-tall center contributed 14 goals and 3 assists in the Premier League last season, and its air advantage (68% success rate of scrambling for top) and fulcrum role are exactly what Newcastle urgently needs.

3. Chelsea reverses! Jackson's interception battle is about to break out, Nicholas Jackson's transfer has changed: after rejecting Bayern Munich's loan offer, Chelsea turned to consider a permanent sale plan of £40 million. Newcastle has contacted player agent Ali Bharat to match Chelsea's asking price. It is worth noting that Jackson's liquidated damages clause will drop to £35 million in the summer of 2026, but Newcastle chose to take action in advance to avoid long nights and dreams. If the deal is reached, he will form a "black and hard" combination with Visa. The two contributed a total of 31 Premier League goals last season.

The business logic behind the transfer game

Financial leverage operation: Isaac's £125 million revenue will cover the total transfer costs of Visa (55 million), Larson (60 million) and Jackson (40 million), while making room for FFP compliance.

Youth Training Alternative Program: 20-year-old German striker Nick Waltermede (introduced from Stuttgart for 20 million pounds) will be trained as the fourth striker, and his German price has increased from 8 million euros to 18 million euros.

Tactical adaptability: Eddie Howe plans to create a "three-center rotation system" - Visa focuses on the pseudo-Nine, Larson serves as the traditional pillar-type center, and Jackson serves as the burst point on the wing, and the three can flexibly switch according to the opponent's defense line.
