Alexander Isak’s Liverpool squad number revealed after record transfer

Alexander Isak Liverpool Newcastle (Organization)

Liverpool have broken the British transfer record by signing Alexander Isak from Newcastle for £125m.
The Sweden international has signed a six-year deal at Anfield, taking the No 9 shirt, and expressed his ambition to "win everything" with the club.
Newcastle allowed the 25-year-old to leave after he went on strike and accused them of broken promises, enabling them to sign replacements Nick Woltemade (£69m) and Yoane Wissa (£50m).
Isak's arrival pushes Liverpool's summer spending to a record £430m, making him the third most expensive signing in football history.
The transfer occurred after Isak forced the move and the club deemed their relationship irreparable.
