Overview
- The 25-year-old completed a British-record £125 million transfer from Newcastle to Liverpool on deadline day.
- Isak came on in the 72nd minute in Pristina, received a booking after a clash with Fidan Aliti, and Sweden lost 2-0 to Kosovo.
- Reports from the match noted a hostile reception as Isak was booed, and he registered multiple shots without scoring.
- Sweden coach Jon Dahl Tomasson said Isak had only three training sessions and no pre-season, explaining his limited use after being an unused substitute versus Slovenia.
- Isak said “not everyone has the full picture” of his move and that he is happy to be a Liverpool player, with his debut timing to be assessed as he joins training before the Burnley trip.
