Potential Liverpool Starting XI for the 2025/2026 Season if Alexander Isak Signs
If Liverpool manage to secure the signing of Alexander Isak from Newcastle United, they could instantly become one of the most feared teams in Europe next season.
The Swedish striker would bring a whole new dynamic to Liverpool’s attacking line. With his blistering pace, sharp movement, clinical finishing, and versatility in various tactical systems, Isak is the kind of complete forward that Arne Slot would love to build around.
Under Slot’s style of play—based on ball dominance, high pressing, and quick transitions—Isak could thrive as the main goal-scoring outlet. His ability to create space, drag defenders, and provide a consistent threat in the final third would unlock even more freedom for players like Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, who may play more centrally in a creative role.
Predicted Liverpool Starting XI with Isak (Formation: 4-2-3-1):
- GK: Alisson Becker
- RB: Trent Alexander-Arnold
- CB: Ibrahima Konaté
- CB: Virgil van Dijk
- LB: Andy Robertson
- CM: Alexis Mac Allister
- CM: Wataru Endo / Stefan Bajcetic
- RW: Mohamed Salah
- CAM: Dominik Szoboszlai
- LW: Luis Díaz / Cody Gakpo
- ST: Alexander Isak
This lineup strikes a perfect balance between experience, creativity, and ruthless attacking power. With incredible squad depth—featuring top-quality rotation options like Diogo Jota, Curtis Jones, Ryan Gravenberch, Harvey Elliott, and Conor Bradley—Liverpool would be well-equipped to navigate a long, demanding season.
Quadruple Contenders? It’s Not Just a Dream
With a squad like this, Liverpool could seriously challenge for all four major trophies: the Premier League, Champions League, FA Cup, and Carabao Cup. If the players remain fit and Slot successfully implements his system, a historic quadruple is no longer just fantasy—it’s a real possibility.
