Liverpool Agree £125m British-Record Deal to Sign Alexander Isak From Newcastle

Isak is scheduled for a Monday medical after Newcastle relaxed their stance following the arrival of Nick Woltemade.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report a fixed £125m fee that sets a new British transfer record, with some saying the package is worth about £130m to Newcastle.
  • The 25-year-old is expected to sign a six-year contract after completing his medical on Monday, with the move subject to final paperwork before the deadline.
  • Newcastle rejected a £110m bid earlier in August and initially targeted about £150m before a late-window breakthrough in talks.
  • The agreement follows Isak’s public push to leave, including training separately and accusing Newcastle of broken promises in a statement.
  • Newcastle’s signing of Nick Woltemade paved the way for approval at ownership level, with reporting also citing Profit and Sustainability considerations.
