Liverpool have finally ended the transfer saga of the summer by landing Alexander Isak, who will wear the No.9 shirt at Anfield.

The Reds have brokered a British record £125m deal to land striker Isak from Newcastle.

Yeah, [as simple as that].”

But despite a deal sheet being submitted with the Premier League a £35m move for Crystal Palace centre-back Marc Guehi collapsed at the 11th hour.

Isak finally got his wish though when Liverpool agreed a deal with Newcastle on Sunday night after the Magpies opened the door to negotiations.

Isak, 25, has signed a six-year deal at Anfield after a summer saga which saw the Sweden forward go on strike to force a move away from St James’ Park.

Newcastle relented when he informed them last week that he would not accept more money or a clause inserted into his deal to allow him to leave next summer for a set fee.

The Magpies signed Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart for a club record £65m and Yoane Wissa from Brentford for £55m to replace Isak and Callum Wilson.

Liverpool have spent £455.5m this summer on new recruits in a record-breaking transfer window for English clubs.

Their £116m move for Florian Wirtz from Bayer Leverkusen has already been beaten by Isak while they also signed forward Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt for £79m.
