Liverpool s forward signings choose one of two: Isaac, or Ekitic?

According to the summary of news from various parties, Liverpool's current goal of signing on the front line is very clear, with two major candidates, one is Isaac and the other is Ekitic. Both of them are typical high centers. Isaac is 1.92 meters tall and Ekitic is 1.90 meters tall. Who do you think is more suitable for Liverpool?

Isaac is 25 years old, Swedish international, Germany is worth 120 million euros. He joined Newcastle from Real Sociedad for 70 million euros in the summer of 2022. He played for 109 games in three seasons, scored 62 goals and sent 11 assists, helping Newcastle win the 2025 League Cup. In the past two seasons, Isaac's Premier League goals have reached 20+, which is very efficient.

Ekitic is 23 years old and a French international. Germany is worth 75 million euros. He only officially transferred from Paris Saint-Germain to Frankfurt a year ago, with a transfer fee of only 16.5 million euros. In the 2024-25 season, Ekitic played 48 games for Farakfort, contributing 22 goals and 12 assists, and his personal price soared from 20 million euros to 75 million euros, winning the favor of many giants.

For Liverpool, Isaac, who has played for three years and performed well in Newcastle, is obviously the best choice. Ekitic's advantage is that it is lower value and younger. As Romano and other reporters revealed, Liverpool's first choice target is Isaac, and it will only join the battle for Ekitic after the failure to introduce Isaac.

Interestingly, Newcastle is also interested in Ekitic and has submitted a offer of over 70 million euros to Frankfurt. On the other hand, Newcastle internally regards Isaac as a non-sale product, and will only consider it unless Isaac himself submits a formal transfer application. It is reported that Liverpool has prepared a £120 million offer for Isaac, provided that Newcastle is willing to sell it.

Liverpool's first choice Isaac, and Ekitic is the alternative. Newcastle insists on not selling Isaac, and at the same time he attacks Ekitic. This situation makes Liverpool uncomfortable. It is foreseeable that Liverpool will spend a considerable transfer fee whether it is the final introduction of Isaac or Ekitic!
