Isak went straight on international duty after his switch to Anfield was completed, joining up with the Sweden squad for their latest pair of 2026 World Cup qualifiers.

Liverpool return to action today with all eyes on the new addition they made to their squad on transfer deadline day. The Reds signed off for the international break with a hard-fought 1-0 win over last season's title rivals Arsenal at Anfield.

Only a few weeks ago, Gomez’s position at Anfield appeared uncertain. Interest arrived from Brighton and AC Milan during the final days of the summer transfer window, with reports suggesting a late move was possible. Ultimately, Gomez remained at Liverpool, a decision welcomed by the club given the busy schedule ahead.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot says record signing Alexander Isak will be gradually integrated into the team after his heavily interrupted start to the season.
