Liverpool enlisted scientists for the record transfer of Isak: details of the deal

Despite the complicated process, Liverpool responded to concerns regarding Isak's injury history before paying such a huge sum.

The striker missed 39 out of 114 matches for Newcastle due to predominantly groin issues and spent more than 200 days in training without active play under Eddie Howe's management.

According to reports by Mirror, Liverpool was forced to enlist sports science experts to assess Isak's physical condition.

Transfer negotiators were determined to ensure that the striker would not become a regular visitor to the treatment room.

However, fitness specialists were satisfied with Isak's physical condition and confirmed that there were no reasons to deny the record contract in the UK.

In fact, sports systems even believe they can improve Isak's injury condition to reduce the number of missed matches.

He will also be under close supervision after returning from international duty with Sweden.

A special training program has already been developed, and Isak will need to regain his match fitness after training alone for most of the summer.
