BBC Sport is one of the sources that report that an agreement has been concluded for the Swedish striker to leave St James' Park for Anfield, at the end of a transfer window dominated by speculation concerning his future.
Liverpool saw an offer of 110 million pounds sterling ($ 149 million) rejected earlier this summer, Newcastle being reluctant to separate from a precious player bound by contract. Isak, however, clearly indicated that he wanted to leave Tyneside.
An agreement was reached for the prolific Swedish striker
A big expenditure for the champions of the Premier League
The 25-year-old withdrew from training at some point, working alone, after being excluded from Eddie Howe's pre-season plans because of an alleged “minor injury to the thigh”. Isak said that promises had been “broken” and that his “relationship with the Magpies could not continue”.
A long saga is coming to an end
While a new deadline is fast approaching, Isak seems ready to achieve his wish and join the champions in the title of the Premier League. Newcastle reluctantly accepted a sale after recruiting the German striker Nick Woltemade for a record contract.
According to some information, Isak will have a medical examination on Monday before signing a six -year contract in Merseyside. He will become the most expensive player in British football and will conclude a summer rich in spending on the ambitious Liverpool of Arne Slot.
