Newcastle United have made a move to sign RB Leipzig star Benjamin Sesko despite turning down Liverpool's bid for Alexander Isak but there is no good news for the Reds just yet

Liverpool's stance has become clearer after their £110m offer for Alexander Isak was rejected by rivals Newcastle United. There is little under one month of the summer transfer window to go as this situation threatens to encroach on the new campaign.

Newcastle United have endured a frustrating summer in the transfer market, with reported pursuits of multiple targets, including goalkeeper James Trafford and forward Hugo Ekitike, ending in disappointment. Trafford has joined Manchester City, while Ekitike opted for Liverpool, both in high-profile moves.
