Jamie Carragher has warned Liverpool that securing Alexander Isak's signature wouldn't guarantee them the Premier League title.

With Isak keen to join Liverpool, there's still a possibility the forward could get his wish and add to Arne Slot's already formidable frontline.

When asked about Liverpool's prospects of signing Isak, Sky Sports pundit Carragher replied: "Yeah, I think so, but I don't get this narrative of Liverpool are going to run away with it."

Carragher pointed to the Reds' Community Shield defeat to Crystal Palace as evidence that new arrivals Florian Wirtz, Jeremie Frimpong, Milos Kerkez and Hugo Ekitike will require time to blend.

There could still be further additions, with the club also in talks over a move for Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.

"If you look at history, it could tell you that it's not just about having the best players, it's about having the best team, and sort of making that balance right, and at the weekend it didn't quite look right," Carragher said.

The Liverpool legend continued: "I think we will have a title race, and I think there's a lot of talk.

It didn't look right.

"It tells me it's not just about spending lots of money and buying the best players, you've still got to manage that team and make it work and have a nice balance to it."

However, former Manchester United defender Neville believes that landing Isak could establish Liverpool as the prime candidates to retain their crown.

"Liverpool won it really comfortably last year and have had a great transfer window," he said during the launch of Sky Sports' Premier League coverage.
