Liverpool has signed Alexander Isak from Newcastle United in a British record £125m transfer, while Newcastle valued it at £130m. The move was confirmed late on deadline day after the striker refused to train or play. Newcastle issued a blunt 37-word farewell without wishing him luck, while Isak expressed delight at joining Liverpool and chasing trophies.
As the transfer window closed, Liverpool secured the signing of Alexander Isak from Newcastle United in a British record deal worth £125 million, though Newcastle valued the transfer at £130 million. The move was finalized late on deadline day, with the official announcement coming at 9:30 pm on Monday. Newcastle issued a strikingly cold 37-word statement confirming Isak’s departure, pointedly omitting the customary good luck message.
Their terse approach reflected tensions after the striker had reportedly refused to play or train during the summer. Isak, who joined Newcastle from Real Sociedad in 2022, made 109 appearances for the Magpies before forcing through his move to Anfield. Speaking to Liverpool’s media, the 25-year-old striker expressed his excitement and ambition, describing Liverpool as the perfect environment to take his career to the next level.
He emphasized his desire to contribute goals, develop further as a player, and most importantly, win trophies. Calling the transfer a “dream step,” he highlighted his motivation to create history with the club and help the team achieve success.
