"While plenty of the Premier League's big-money summer recruits might have made an immediate impact at their new clubs, there are a handful of European superstars who have quickly found themselves at the heart of a nightmare. Although reigning English champions Liverpool might have shattered a string of financial records during the summer transfer window, it has been many of the record-breaking new arrivals who have struggled to find their feet the most."
"At the heart of what became a spectacularly messy divorce from Newcastle over the summer, Alexander Isak stole plenty of the Premier League's headlines and quickly became embroiled in an epic saga. While the Swedish marksman might have eventually forced through a move to defending Premier League champions Liverpool after both parties agreed on a record-breaking £125million move, Isak has failed to replicate his form on Merseyside."
Several high-fee Premier League summer signings have failed to immediately reproduce expected impact, with Liverpool's record arrivals among the most underwhelming. Alexander Isak completed a reported £125million move from Newcastle to Liverpool but has struggled to replicate his prior goalscoring form on Merseyside and often started on the bench behind Hugo Ekitike. Isak scored in a 2-1 win at Tottenham but then suffered a reported leg fracture requiring surgery and is expected to be sidelined for several months, with a return not anticipated until February at the earliest.
