Liverpool have reached an agreement with Newcastle United to sign Alexander Isak in a Premier League-record 130m deal. The move ends a drawn out transfer saga surrounding the Swedish striker this summer.
Softfootball understands that he 25-year-old will have his medical examination today with the Reds looking to announce the transfer as soon as possible. Liverpool had an original 110m offer rejected in August but are now set to land their first-choice target of the summer.
The protracted saga involving the 25-year-old appears set to come to an end on the final day of the summer transfer window, and it follows Newcastle having signed striker Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart last week.
