Isak missed the entirety of Newcastle United’s pre-season as well as their opening Premier League fixtures in a bid to force a move to Anfield.
While the Magpies initially rejected a reported £110 million (R2.6 billion) bid from the six-time European champions, they have now agreed to let their talisman depart for a record-breaking fee as he is now set to put pen to paper on a six year contract.
This decision is believed to be influenced in part by the club-record signing of German international Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart, who arrived for €75 million (R1.5 billion). Newcastle had previously seen bids rejected for Jorge Strand Larsen, Yoane Wissa and Hugo Ekitike.
Ekitike ultimately joined Liverpool earlier in the window, and now the Reds have further strengthened their attack with the addition of Isak. Arne Slot’s side have invested heavily this off-season, bringing in the likes of Florian Wirtz—whose €125 million (R2.5 billion) transfer briefly stood as the Premier League record—alongside Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez, Giovanni Leoni and Armin Pešić.
