Liverpool agree £125m Isak deal with Newcastle

Liverpool have agreed a £125m fee with Newcastle to sign Alexander Isak.

Sources close to the deal have told BBC Sport that an agreement for the Sweden international to join the Anfield club is now in place.

Isak will undergo a medical on Monday ahead of signing a six-year deal at the club.

Liverpool had an original £110m offer rejected earlier this month but they are now set to land their first-choice target of the summer.

Liverpool looks like they will get isak and gheui deals done, that's not good for rest of PL
 
Just read in a local paper here that Liverpool are paying £125M for Isak and the medical is shceduled later today, according to David Ornstein 😳 @KingKhanWC @Geordie Ahmed

Yep he is already packing his suitcase, on his way to the champions. It makes sense for Newcastle to let go, they will earn a lot of money and can move on with their football. For Liverpool this is a huge signing, Isak is an elite striker now. We need him as when we took off Ekitike but didnt have any real class cover.
 
Liverpool really acting like the big club that they are and can only applaud their ambition.

One thing I dont wanna hear anymore is the City Bought the league rubbish. £430 million spent at the end of this window? I've never seen anything like it. I think they will/should be faves for the title now but I stick by Arsenal.

Just for the record, I don't have any issue with teams spending money due to them being a big club.

Pressure is on Arteta to deliver this season - but I would also say same with Slot. You don't spend that money as champions to not go back to back. Will be an interesting season.

Works out to be £130m with solidarity payments, maybe a bit more considering Isak will rightly not be getting his loyalty bonus

I actually don't feel anywhere near as bad as I thought I would

Maybe it's because I've been expecting this deal to happen so came to terms with it a while ago, I even said last week I think £120m plus some add ons gets the deal (I even said last month when players push for a move they mostly get it)

There is a lot of anger amongst our fans but for me it's quite simple, Newcastle United was there before Isak and it will be there after him

I'm not going to blame the club like I did when we sold Carroll to them. This is very different, this situation has been engineered by Liverpool, Isak and his agent from the start. And ultimately players do hold the main card, which is stepping on to that pitch.

His behaviour meant an exit was the right thing and exit this summer was the right thing. Yes, we could have held on for another 6/12 months but what would we have gained from that? An extra £15m/£20m? Which considering the distraction and the cloud that would followed through the season isn't worth that much

We have doubled our money on him, our PSR situation will be very healthy in the medium term, we can fully focus our energy on the players that are at the club (well, a little bit of energy on hate watching too :ROFLMAO:).

We also know he's not the most robust, if he keeps picking up those niggles it may turn out to be a poor buy from Liverpool and suddenly the £130m will look even better.
