The Swedish international will travel to Merseyside on Monday for a medical, but a comprehensive agreement has already been reached between the two parties, putting an end to the twists and turns of this summer’s transfer window.
Newcastle United will now turn their attention to signing a replacement for the Swedish international. It is understood that the club has reopened talks with Chelsea regarding a potential transfer deal for Nicolas Jackson, though he is not the only target being considered.
Newcastle United is confident of signing a new center-forward before the transfer window closes, and this, along with the substantial transfer fee involved, is the reason behind the club’s approval of Isak’s departure.
Newcastle United’s recruitment team believes that it is currently unrealistic to count on Brentford selling Yoane Wissa, and they hold a similar view regarding Wolverhampton Wanderers’ desire to retain Jörgen Strand Larsen.
Isak will sign a six-year contract with Liverpool and will undergo a medical with the club on deadline day.
