Alexander Isak completed a British-record £125m move from Newcastle United to Liverpool on deadline day after a high-profile standoff that saw him exiled from Newcastle's squad. Newcastle sold Isak and brought in Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa as replacements. Isak scored 54 Premier League goals for Newcastle, 23 in his final season, and scored the EFL Cup final winner over Liverpool in March. Isak previously won the Copa del Rey with Real Sociedad and the DFB-Pokal with Borussia Dortmund. Isak says he wants to create history, win trophies, and further develop his game at Liverpool.
Isak's standoff with Newcastle was the biggest story of the transfer window, with the Sweden international exiled from their squad as he pushed for a move to Anfield. That deal finally materialised on deadline day, as Newcastle sold Isak for a Premier League record fee, with Nick Woltemade and Yoane Wissa being brought in as replacements.
Me getting the chance to be a part of this... I want to create history. I want to win trophies. That's ultimately the biggest motivation for me and I feel like this is the perfect place for me to grow even further and to take my game to the next level and help the team as well.
