Liverpool has become an extremely rich man this summer window and is the team with the strongest purchasing power in the top five leagues. Liverpool's forward Nunes's shooting skills are not good, and Jota's death makes Liverpool's forward need to sign a powerful striker. Liverpool's forward first choice for Newcastle's Swedish striker Isak, and the second choice was Frankfurt's French striker Ekitic.

Romano updated the news of Liverpool's forward signings: Newcastle has withdrawn from the competition for Ekitic. Currently, only one Liverpool club is negotiating with Frankfurt for Ekitic's transfer. Frankfurt is asking for more than 80 million euros, and Liverpool is preparing a second offer. Ekitic is eager to join Liverpool. The two clubs are currently negotiating details of the transfer fee, and it is expected that the deal will not be problematic.

As for Isaac, as Newcastle withdraws from the competition for Ekitic, and the team will play in the Champions League in the new season, the Magpies will do their best to keep the number one scorer Isaac. Liverpool has a clear attitude towards Isaac and is willing to offer Newcastle 120 million pounds. If Newcastle is happy to talk, Liverpool will follow up. Isaac is also the best choice for Liverpool's forward line. But as far as the situation is concerned, it will be difficult for Isaac to leave the team this summer window, and Newcastle will compete in the Champions League with the strongest lineup. After Liverpool signs Ekitic, they will basically not introduce Isaac again, but before Ekitic is finalized, Liverpool are willing to sign Isaac for 120 million pounds, but the possibility is already very small.

Therefore, the final answer to Liverpool's forward signings this summer window is to sign Ekitic for more than 80 million euros, and Isaac will stay in Newcastle to compete in the new season's Champions League + Premier League. Ekitic has such a thin body and can adapt to the Premier League. Nunes still has the opportunity to prove himself and needs to improve his shooting skills.
