Overview
- Alexander Isak completed a British-record £125 million transfer from Newcastle to Liverpool on deadline day.
- He played 18 minutes in Sweden’s 2-0 World Cup qualifying loss to Kosovo, receiving a yellow card after a clash with Fidan Aliti and drawing boos from the stands.
- Isak said “not everyone has the full picture” of the transfer saga and stressed he is happy to be a Liverpool player.
- Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson limited his minutes after only three training sessions, with national and club staff coordinating on his reintegration.
