Liverpool believe doing so would distort the market and weaken their position for future deals.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018- Newcastle continue to seek strikers, but sources say Yoane Wissa or J\u00f8rgen Stand Larsen are Callum Wilson replacements. Several other targets explored.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018- Newcastle have felt for much of the summer that Isak staying without signing a new deal is untenable.
