Liverpool fans have been left stunned after catching a glimpse of Alexander Isak’s first training session in red. The £125m signing from Newcastle United—now the most expensive player in British football history—hit the pitches at the AXA Training Centre for the first time, and the reaction was electric. ⚡🔴
The Swedish striker’s move dominated headlines all summer. After three seasons on Tyneside, Isak pushed for the switch to Anfield, missing pre-season fixtures and stirring plenty of controversy in the process. Now, with the dust settled, the focus has shifted firmly onto what he can deliver under Arne Slot.
📸 Liverpool’s official footage showcased Isak moving effortlessly through drills, with his trademark agility and ruthless finishing on full display. Supporters quickly took to social media to voice their excitement, posting comments such as:
- “We might have actually underpaid for him!”
- “Isak in yellow F50s at the AXA… this is what dreams are made of.”
- “Imagine him lining up with Salah, Wirtz, and Gakpo. Terrifying.”
The 25-year-old is tipped to make his debut this weekend when Liverpool travel to Turf Moor to take on Burnley, as the Reds aim to keep their flawless Premier League start alive.
🗣️ While on international duty, Isak hinted there’s more behind his Newcastle departure than meets the eye:
“Not everyone has the full picture, but that’s for another day. I’m just proud to be a Liverpool player – that’s all that matters now.”
With excitement already at fever pitch, Liverpool supporters are counting down the days to see their new No.9 in competitive action. Could this mark the start of a new era at Anfield? 👀🔥
