Sweden international Alexander Isak is being viewed by Jurgen Klopp and Liverpool as a long-term successor to Roberto Firmino at Anfield and the Reds are considering the possibility of making a move for him this summer.
Reports from Noticias de Gipuzkoa claim that the 21-year-old Real Sociedad forward has courted attention from the Merseyside Reds who see the youngster as a potential summer signing to bolster their attacking line.
Firmino endured possibly his worst season in the Liverpool colours last time around and with speculation arising that he could leave the club ahead of the next season amid interest from La Liga champions Atletico Madrid, Klopp will be forced to bring in a striking option to replace his long-serving Brazillian.
Despite talks of Firmino being offloaded by Liverpool this summer downplayed by many, the Anfield camp are certain to lose Divock Origi with the Belgian international not seen as a first-team option any longer beyond the ongoing summer window.
Origi’s departure could open the door for Jurgen Klopp to sign the 6’4 tall Isak who scored 17 goals in 34 outings across the previous campaign making his presence known to some of the biggest clubs in the continent.
