Liverpool have completed the signing of Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak for a British-record fee reported around £130 million. Liverpool had tracked Isak all summer and agreed terms after valuation differences with Newcastle. Isak trained at former club Real Sociedad and posted on social media to express his desire to leave, then went on strike at Tyneside. Newcastle signed German talent Nick Woltemade as replacement and pursued other targets including Bryan Mbeumo, Benjamin Sesko and Yoane Wissa but faced obstacles.
