“Alexander Isak’s Training Clips Shock Liverpool Supporters Following Newcastle Omission”

Liverpool Fans React as Alexander Isak Impresses in Sweden Training After Newcastle Fallout

Liverpool fans took to social media with excitement after new training footage of Alexander Isak surfaced online.

The 25-year-old striker officially joined Liverpool on deadline day, completing a high-profile transfer worth £125 million — a new British record — and ending months of speculation. He signed a six-year deal with the reigning Premier League champions.

Isak hasn’t played a competitive match since appearing in Newcastle United’s 1-0 loss to Everton on the final day of the 2024/25 season. He remained out of the spotlight for most of the transfer window before issuing a surprise public statement accusing Newcastle of breaking promises — a claim the club denied.

One person who stayed in contact with Isak during the transfer saga was Sweden’s national team manager, Jon Dahl Tomasson. Despite Isak’s inactivity, the 49-year-old coach included him in the squad for upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Slovenia and Kosovo, reflecting their close relationship.

Several other Swedish Premier League players are also in the squad, including Viktor Gyökeres (Arsenal), Anthony Elanga (Newcastle), Lucas Bergvall (Tottenham), Emil Krafth (Newcastle), and Gabriel Gudmundsson (Leeds United). The squad is currently preparing for Friday’s match against Slovenia in Ljubljana.

With training videos released via Sweden’s official social channels, all eyes were on Isak’s performance after months away from the pitch.

One particular clip of the forward caught attention on X (formerly Twitter), sparking a wave of excitement among fans.

One supporter wrote: “To think he hasn’t played in three months and still looks this sharp is crazy. Can’t wait for the season to start.”

Another added: “Omfgggg he’s looking more vicious.”

A third fan confidently claimed: “I’ve seen enough — start him against Burnley.”

While another boldly predicted: “He’s going to score at least 30 goals this season.”

Toni Kroos Gives Blunt Opinion on Isak

Despite Isak’s growing reputation in England, not everyone in Europe is familiar with the Swedish forward. On his podcast with his brother Felix, former Real Madrid and Germany star Toni Kroos offered a blunt assessment.

“I trust our listeners, but I’d guess about half of them have never even heard of Isak. Judge for yourselves. Seriously,” said the 2014 World Cup winner.

He also remarked: “It’s a lot of money, no question.”

Isak previously played in Germany with Borussia Dortmund between 2017 and 2019, though he made just 13 senior appearances during his stint in the Bundesliga.
