His glide from the Magpies amended into the send legend of the summer season season via Isak going on blow in edict to power a glide and launching a endorsement criticising Newcastle.
Isak did not seize part in pre-period at St James’ Park after picking up a upper leg injury, which approaches that it will possibly seize a while for the brand name-neoteric Liverpool finalizing to avail up to price.
Previous Liverpool midfielder Joe Cole claimed this week that he doesn’t reckon Isak will possibly go uninfluenced into the Reds launching XI, specifically via Hugo Ekitike’s early-period kind.

“We will possibly treat Alex [Isak] unchanged as they did so don’t intend him to be [playing] every singular gallery 90 minutes on the peddle as that is possibly not attending seize place in the honest weeks.
“He missed a applicable pre-period and I reckon he missed 3 to 4 months of junior sessions so now we have to construct him up ceaselessly via us playing so most arcades. That is attending be a dilemma but we have not signed him for the next off 2 weeks we have signed him for six years and the fans have to retain this in psyche.”
