Fabrizio Romano has dropped many updates during the transfer window and has shown, once again, that he is a reliable source. The journalist usually doesn't make mistakes and he has information about the vast majority of teams. In fact, his fame has reached such a point that he is already on the lips of all fans around the world.
One of the scoops he gave during this window was Joan García, who left Espanyol to join Barça. Those in the Catalan capital have had problems registering their signings, but they have finally managed to do so. Now, Laporta's hope has disappeared after Fabrizio Romano's confirmation.
The news Fabrizio Romano has dropped
Fabrizio Romano has closely followed all the top teams and he hasn't missed a single signing. Liverpool have gone through some tough months after several bad news stories, but these last few weeks they have stepped up. The English have wanted to improve their attack and they have done so with one of Joan Laporta's favorite signings.
Barça have had to do without some of their footballers due to financial problems; especially, Fair Play. The Catalans also haven't been able to move freely in the transfer market and they have had to dig deep into their pockets. This has led the Premier League striker to decide to sign for Liverpool.
The forward we're talking about is Alexander Isak, who has caught the attention of several of the continent's top clubs. The Swede finished a great season with Newcastle and Liverpool have made several offers until they found one that satisfied the Magpies. In total, according to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool will pay €130 million ($130 million) for Isak.
Alexander Isak won't go to Barça
Alexander Isak has been on Barça's radar for a couple of years, but financial problems have made it completely unfeasible. Joan Laporta and Deco have had to juggle to keep the stars who were already wearing the club's jersey. In addition, the signings that have been made haven't demanded as much as Alexander Isak.
Fabrizio Romano, via Instagram, has made it clear that Alexander Isak is leaving for Liverpool, so Barça will have to think of another option. We will have to closely follow the Barça board so we don't miss any updates. The next transfer window could be key in the plans of those in the Catalan capital.
