It’s been going on for a while now, but now it seems to be extremely close. Alexander Isak is very likely to play in Liverpool in the next few years. According to several British media, the transition sum is stated to be £ 130 million, approximately SEK 1.65 billion.
The message comes less than a day before the transfer window closes.
Have wanted to change club
Isaac has long been rumored to be on his way to Liverpool and he has cited training in his current team, Newcastle. In August, the 25-year-old made a statement on Instagram where he openly declared that he wants to leave:
“When promises are broken, confidence disappears, the relationship cannot continue.”
Newcastle presented on Saturday Isak’s expected replacement, German Nick Woltemade. They are also looking for a striker and there is rumor about Brentford’s Yoane Wissa.
The most expensive Swede
The transfer window in England closes at 8 pm on Monday. The price tag of SEK 1.65 billion makes him the most expensive player in Premier League’s history.
– He has been extremely good in a Newcastle that has been okay in recent seasons, but it is a step up and everything around is so much bigger. Just being good in Liverpool is great success, says SVT Sports expert Magnus Eriksson in the Morning Studio.
During the day, the Swedish men’s national team will gather in Stockholm for World Cup qualifiers. According to The Atheltic, Isaac will undergo the medical examination on Monday and then connect to Blågult.
During his three seasons in Newcastle, Isaac has scored 62 goals in 109 competition matches. According to information to the BBC, the contract is six years.
