Alexander Isak, born on 21 September 1999 (age 27), is a Swedish striker with Liverpool, where he wears the number 9 shirt. A towering 6ft 4in (1.92m) forward, he is valued at around £102m by Transfermarkt, which tells its own story without needing much embroidery.
His most productive league season came at Newcastle United in 2024-2025, when he scored 23 goals in 34 appearances. That was the campaign that put the hard numbers behind the impression: pace, reach, clean finishing, and enough composure to make him more than just a big striker running channels.
At Liverpool in 2026-2027, Isak has made 11 appearances across all competitions and scored six goals. His Premier League return stands at seven appearances and six goals, alongside two League Cup appearances and two in the Champions League.
Isak’s career has moved from Swedish promise to proven Premier League production, with Newcastle providing the clearest scoring season of his club career so far and Liverpool now carrying the next stage of it.
