William Hill have slashed the price of Alexander Isak signing for Liverpool this summer after the Reds finalised the big-money sale of Luis Díaz to Bayern Munich over the weekend.

The Newcastle striker was already 8/13 to make the switch to Anfield after telling the Magpies he wanted to leave but now trades at 1/8 after another eventful weekend in the transfer window.

Liverpool sit alone at the top of the betting, with a move to any Saudi club way out in second at 12/1:

Liverpool                         1/8

Any Saudi Club            12/1

Manchester United   20/1

PSG                                    20/1

Chelsea                           20/1

BAR                                    25/1

Spokesperson for William Hill, Lee Phelps, said: “Plenty were questioning whether Liverpool could afford a deal for Isak after splashing the cash on both Hugo Ekitike and Florian Wirtz earlier this month but Luis Díaz’s move to Bayern Munich has freed up the funds for the Reds to go big for the Newcastle striker in the coming days.

“Isak has openly discussed his interest in joining the Reds and his odds of 8/13 to sign for the Premier League champions have been slashed to 1/8, suggesting it’s just a matter of time before we see the Swede at Anfield.”

With the new Premier League season just around the corner, time will tell whether Arne Slot’s men will add another huge name to their ranks to bolster their title defence.
