Liverpool are expected to return with an improved offer after seeing an opening bid for Alexandar Isak rejected.

The Premier League champions, who have already spend well over £200million this summer, tabled a £110mi bid dismissed out of hand by Newcastle on Friday.

Wantaway Sweden international Isak is desperate to join the Reds and has communicated his desire to his current employers.

Isak has played no part in Newcastle’s pre-season campaign thus far with Eddie Howe admitting he cannot guarantee the striker will remain at St James’ Park.

Newcastle have not denied that the Swede has gone AWOL, after he reported a thigh injury that ruled him out of their Far East tour.

The Magpies, however, insist their prize asset will not be sold for anything less than £150m but are making contingency plans.

Newcastle have already seen Liverpool hijack their own move for Hugo Ekitike, while Benjamin Sesko is understood to have his heart set on a move to Manchester United.

Ruben Amorim is said to have had Ollie Watkins as his No.1 target to cure United’s lack of goals but he appears to have been overruled.

Newcastle, however, are, according to the Daily Mail, likely to move for the England striker should Isak’s wish be granted.

Howe has endured a frustrating summer to this point with moves for the likes of Yoane Wissa and Jorgen Strand Larsen of Wolves failing to materialise.

Watkins was almost deemed surplus to requirements in January following the arrivals of Marcus Rashford and Marcos Asensio at Villa Park.

With neither player making that switch to Villa Park a permanent one and Jhon Duran having already departed, Watkins once again represents a key man for Unai Emery.

Watkins will have been looking to block out the outside noise over his future as Villa continued their pre-season tour of the United States with a 2-1 victory over St Louis City SC on Thursday.

Having found the the net just four days earlier in a 2-2 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt, Watkins headed home what proved to be the decisive goal after Morgan Rogers’ earlier effort at Energizer Park.

Asked if he was pleased to see Watkins amongst the goals ahead of the new season, Emery told reporters: ‘Yes, it’s important for us.

‘Playing even one time, second time… not different shapes, but different players and mixing players.

‘Morgan [Rogers] scored in the first half and Watkins scored in the second half. For them, it is important.

‘But as well, I want to have more players scoring goals. Hopefully we can do that in the next match against Nashville.

The idea now is more than the result, more than our shape. With the players we have to try to get our best performance.’
