Isak finally living up to price tag as Liverpool patience rewarded
It has been a long time coming, but Alexander Isak might finally be living up to his price tag.
Isak, who arrived at Anfield for a British record £125m in August 2025, had a poor start to his Liverpool career. He scored only four goals in 22 games and suffered a broken leg in December. However, the 27-year-old Sweden striker has been on a goal-scoring roll this season. His recent goal against Brighton helped Liverpool secure a 2-0 win, extending his tally to six goals for the campaign.
Isak is currently averaging nearly a goal per game and has scored over half of Liverpool's Premier League goals this season. Despite not always being at his best, his performances have been crucial for the team, as seen in their 4th league win at Anfield under Iraola. Only Erling Haaland has scored more Premier League goals than Isak this season.
Liverpool will face Arsenal next in the league, and Isak's potential performance could cause concern for the rest of the top flight.
