Alexander Isak<\/a> says he will be \u2018forever grateful\u2019 to former club Newcastle<\/a> following his \u00a3125million switch to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old striker joined Liverpool on deadline day for a British record transfer fee and has signed a six-year deal with the Reds.<\/p>\n

Isak\u2019s switch to Anfield ends a long-drawn out saga after he effectively went on strike while searching for a move elsewhere over the summer and did not feature in Newcastle<\/a>\u2018s pre-season or their opening three Premier League<\/a> fixtures.<\/p>\n

His departure brings to a close a three-year stay at St James\u2019 Park, where he scored 54 times in 86 league appearances and struck in the Carabao Cup<\/a> final earlier this year to help the Magpies clinch their first major piece of silverware for 70 years.<\/p>\n

In a statement on Instagram, Isak said: \u201cI want to express my gratitude to my teammates, the staff, and above all, the city of Newcastle<\/a> and all the amazing supporters for the three unforgettable years we shared together.<\/p>\n

\u201cTogether, we have written history and brought the club to the place where it truly belongs.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has been an honour to be part of the journey from reaching the Champions League<\/a> to winning the first trophy in over 70 years.<\/p>\n

\u201cForever grateful. Thank you, Newcastle<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n

Newcastle<\/a> have added to their attacking options over the summer window with Germany international Nick Woltemade and long-term target Yoane Wissa joining the club.<\/p>\n

The Magpies issued a short statement on Monday night following Isak\u2019s departure.<\/p>\n

\u201cNewcastle<\/a> can announce the sale of striker Alexander Isak<\/a> to Liverpool for a significant British record transfer fee,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Sweden international joined the Magpies from Real Sociedad in 2022 and made 109 appearances in all competitions.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alexander Isak says he will be \u2018forever grateful\u2019 to former club Newcastle following his \u00a3125million switch to Liverpool.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":110777,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[59,134,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-110776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-gb","tag-liverpool-fc","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110776","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=110776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/110776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/110777"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=110776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=110776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=110776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
