Liverpool agree on Alexander Isak deal with Newcastle United for British record fee

Liverpool have reportedly shattered the British transfer record, signing Swedish striker Alexander Isak from Newcastle United for 125 million pounds, signaling a new era under Arne Slot as they rebuild their squad with big-name arrivals and strategic exits.

Liverpool have finally secured Swedish striker Alexander Isak from Newcastle United in a deal worth a staggering 125 million pounds, smashing the British transfer record for the second time this summer. The fee could reportedly rise to 130 million pounds with performance-based add-ons, making Isak the most expensive signing in Premier League history.

The 25-year-old striker, who had been pushing for a move away from St James’ Park for over a month, has already travelled to Merseyside and is expected to undergo his medical on Monday before signing a six-year contract with the Reds. Liverpool had initially made a 110 million pounds bid in August, which was turned down by Newcastle, but they have now landed their top attacking target of the summer window.
