With just hours left in the window, the Reds not only broke their transfer record but did it twice in the same summer, strengthening both ends of the pitch in a way that has left fans stunned and rivals worried.
### Alexander Isak: The New No. 9
* **Fee:** £130m (club record)
* **Contract:** Six years, until June 2031
* **Shirt Number:** Expected to wear the iconic No. 9 jersey
The Swede arrives after a long, tense saga with Newcastle United. Despite initial resistance from the Magpies, Liverpool’s persistence — and Newcastle’s move for a replacement — paved the way for one of the biggest deals in Premier League history.
Isak has been Liverpool’s dream target all summer, and now, he’s here to lead the line under Arne Slot.
### Marc Guéhi: The Defensive Reinforcement
* **Fee:** £30m
* **Contract:** Five years
* **Role:** Long-term partner for Virgil van Dijk and heir to the defensive line
Guéhi’s move from Crystal Palace gives Liverpool a young, Premier League-proven centre-back who can immediately slot into Slot’s system. His composure, anticipation, and leadership qualities make him a perfect addition, especially with Liverpool competing on all fronts this season.
### A Statement Summer
Liverpool’s summer transfer business now looks like one of the **greatest windows in Premier League history**:
**Federico Chiesa**
**Aurélien Tchouaméni**
**Marc Guéhi**
**Alexander Isak**
Arne Slot and FSG have backed their words with actions, assembling a squad that looks capable of challenging on every front.
**Deadline Day Verdict:** Liverpool haven’t just made signings — they’ve made a statement. Europe is officially on notice.
