Alexander Isak's transfer to Liverpool for £125 million sets a British record and involved a complex saga with Newcastle securing replacements like Nick Woltemade.
- On Monday, September 1, 2025, Liverpool FC completed a British‑record 125m signing of Alexander Isak from Newcastle United, concluding the summer's biggest transfer saga.

- Dan Burn told reporters `We wanted the transfer window to shut just to get a bit of clarity on it`, expressing no animosity, while Isak posted an Instagram farewell expressing 'gratitude' and 'honour' to Newcastle supporters.
- On September 14 Isak could make his Liverpool debut at Burnley, amid Premier League summer spending of 3 billion dollars highlighting its financial clout.
