Liverpool have broken the British transfer record by signing Swedish striker Alexander Isak from Newcastle United for £130 million on deadline day.
The signing boosts Liverpool’s attacking options during a busy summer in which the club has spent around £400 million.
Despite this major acquisition, Liverpool’s pursuit of Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi fell through, even after a £35 million agreement. This leaves the team with potential defensive vulnerabilities.
The club’s aggressive spending has drawn criticism from rivals and some fans, who question the balance between attack and defense amid record-breaking transfer fees.
