Alexander Isak's words after leaving Newcastle United may have come back to haunt him as the striker broke an unwanted Premier League record.

The Sweden international left St James' Park in the summer to join the reigning league champions in a deal worth £130million.

Isak expressed a desire to leave Newcastle during the summer transfer window, which led to the striker eventually getting his wish and moving to Anfield.
