Liverpool supporters are waiting on tenterhooks to see their new deadline day signings officially announced.

The Reds have had a busy day in the window, agreeing a fee for Alexander Isak early on Monday morning before moving on to Marc Guehi.

Unfortunately, there has been a late snag in the Guehi deal, with Crystal Palace’s proposed move for Brighton defender Igor Julio seemingly breaking down.

But as Reds fans wait to hear whether Palace’s failure to land Igor will impact them signing Guehi, it is all systems go towards Isak.

The Swede is set to become the most expensive signing in Liverpool history, and the costliest ever seen in British football.

And ahead of his mammoth move, Isak has been seen heading back to the Liverpool training ground on Monday evening.

Whereas it is now touch and go whether Liverpool will get their Guehi deal over the line, Isak looks to be in no such danger.

Having agreed a deal overnight with Newcastle, the Reds have had the luxury of conducting a medical and media arrangements with Isak in a calm fashion throughout Monday.

Still, Liverpool fans will feel better once the 25-year-old is announced, and as seen in a video of Isak arriving at the AXA Training Centre on Sky Sports News, it may not be far away.

“Alexander Isak has now arrived back at the Liverpool training ground as he looks to complete his British record transfer to the club,” says reporter Bela Shah.

“These pictures just reaching us now, he had been at the facility earlier and then left to continue his medical. Well, he is now back. We are following every step.”

When will Isak signing be announced?

With the transfer deadline arriving at 7pm on Monday evening, there is a good chance that Liverpool announce the signing of Isak before then.

However, that does not leave a lot of time in which for things to happen.

There is a chance the official announcement could be pushed back slightly, with Liverpool having the possibility to submit a ‘deal sheet’ to the Premier League to request an extension.

As things stand, this looks more likely to happen with Guehi than Isak, as the Reds wait for confirmation that Palace will let the captain leave.

It’s all happening this deadline day, but at least one thing we know for certain is that Isak is very much in the building.
