Mac Allister jokes saga tired Reds
Alexander Isak finally joined Liverpool on deadline day for a British-record £125m after months of wrangling with Newcastle. Alexis Mac Allister admitted the squad grew weary of the drawn-out saga but is delighted with the striker’s arrival.
Isak debuted in the 3-2 win over Atletico Madrid, playing just under an hour before Virgil van Dijk’s late winner. With Liverpool’s transfer spree complete and several departures made, Mac Allister believes the 25-year-old will be key — though the saga felt longer than a queue for Anfield pies at half-time.
