Liverpool Considers Selling Isak in January
"Fichajes" revealed that Liverpool has seriously started considering the possibility of selling its Swedish striker Alexander Isak during the upcoming winter transfer window, after his performance this season fell short of the club's expectations.
According to the same source, Isak, the most expensive signing in Liverpool's history with an investment close to 150 million euros, has not been able to fully adapt to coach Arne Slot's style, which relies on fast football, high pressing, and forwards fully involved in team play, which has made the Swede struggle to make an impact on the pitch, with signs of frustration appearing in his body language.
The website pointed out that the financial pressure related to the deal's value has contributed to increasing criticism directed at the player, while his scoring statistics reflect a decline compared to what was expected from a striker of his caliber.
The same source explained that some clubs in the Saudi league have shown significant interest in signing Isak, presenting attractive offers to both the club and the player, which provides Liverpool with an opportunity to recover a large part of its investment and ease financial pressures, especially if Isak continues to play a secondary role within the team's lineup.
The report confirmed that Liverpool's management is carefully studying all options, taking into account the player's current performance, age, the market, and the competitive context, with the possibility of completing the deal in January if Isak's situation does not improve or if coach Arne Slot is not convinced of his short-term usefulness.
