Newcastle United’s preparations for Alexander Isak’s record-breaking departure to Liverpool are almost complete, with reports stating an agreement has been reached to sign Yoane Wissa from Brentford.
The Magpies have reluctantly agreed to sell Isak for a British record £125 million ($168.7 million), but have long been adamant they would only authorise his exit once they had signed two strikers this summer—Callum Wilson’s departure on a free transfer having left Isak and 22-year-old William Osula as the only senior options in Eddie Howe’s squad.
