Boss Slot knew he had to sign Toon star after Kop Wembley heartache

ISAK'S FINAL NOTICE

ARNE SLOT has revealed exactly when he knew he had to have Alexander Isak in his team - the day the Newcastle striker ruined his Wembley glory.

Isak scored Newcastle's second goal as they beat Liverpool 2-1 in the Carabao Cup Final in March and by the end of the transfer saga of the summer, he was at Anfield.

He scored the opener in the 2-0 win at West Ham last Sunday for his first Liverpool goal in the Premier League but was taken off on Wednesday in the 1-1 draw with Sunderland.

Once more it saw the Sweden international on the periphery, replaced in the second period with Slot's side needing a goal. Such is a striker's lot.
