Alexander Isak completed his move to Liverpool on Monday(Image: Getty Images)Alexander Isak's bumper new Liverpool wages after his £125million transfer from Newcastle remain inferior to Erling Haaland's historic Manchester City contract.
The 25-year-old's long-awaited transfer to the Reds was confirmed on Monday, making the ex-Magpies striker the most expensive player in British football history.
The official announcement of the move was confirmed after the 7pm deadline as Isak completed his medical and media duties before heading off to international duty with Sweden.
While he had only been at City for two-and-a-half years at the time, his contract was set to run out at the end of the 2026/27 season.
Thanks to his exploits, which included leading City to two Premier League titles, an FA Cup, the Champions League and a Super Cup, he was awarded a staggering £500,000 a week basic salary.

"I’m just happy it’s done and that I can get back to work.
