Liverpool ‘complete’ Isak transfer with ‘contracts signed from all parties’ amid Klopp ‘advice’ claim
Liverpool have ‘completed’ the signing of Alexander Isak but Newcastle and Reds are still waiting to officially announce a deal, according to reports.
The Reds have been looking to complete two new arrivals on deadline day with Isak one of their top priorities over the last couple of months, while Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi is also expected to arrive.
A messy situation could finally have an ending after Newcastle accepted an offer that could be worth £130m from Liverpool in total.
The Athletic‘s David Ornstein broke the news of a ‘total agreement’ on Monday morning with Isak agreeing a six-year contract at Anfield.
Giving further details, Ornstein wrote in The Athletic: ‘The deal is worth £130million ($176m) to Newcastle due to solidarity payments and will cost Liverpool £125m. It will set a new Premier League transfer record, surpassing Chelsea’s £106m signing of Enzo Fernandez from Benfica in January 2023. Liverpool’s purchase of Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen earlier this summer amounted to a total package of £116m, with an initial fee of £100m and £16m in potential bonuses.
‘Isak will undergo a medical on Monday before completing his move on a six-year deal.’
