Alexander Isak speaks publicly for first time since £125m Liverpool move - as former Newcastle star claims 'not everyone has the full picture'

Alexander Isak has spoken in public for the first time since his British record £125million move to Liverpool was confirmed.

Isak's future was the main saga of the summer window after the Swede refused to train or play for Newcastle in his attempts to force through a transfer to Anfield.

That eventually came to fruition on deadline day and Isak headed straight off on international duty for this month's World Cup qualifiers.

After remaining as an unused substitute for Sweden's 2-2 draw with Slovenia on Friday, he was introduced against Kosovo on Monday in the 72nd minute when his team were already trailing by two goals.
