Liverpool have sealed a deal to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle United for a British record fee of £125 million.
Both clubs have reached an agreement, with the Swedish striker set to undergo medicals on Monday before signing a six-year contract at Anfield.
Liverpool had seen an earlier £110m offer in August rejected, but have now met Newcastle’s valuation to land their top summer target.
The move ends weeks of speculation, coming just after Newcastle signed German striker Nick Woltemade from Stuttgart.
Isak’s future had been in doubt all summer. He skipped Newcastle’s pre-season tour of Asia, officially due to a thigh injury, but he instead trained at his former club Real Sociedad.
He later accused Newcastle of breaking promises and said their relationship “can’t continue,” paving the way for his record-breaking move to Liverpool.
