Sweden news

Viktor Gyokeres has discussed his recent blanks for Sweden following their dismal World Cup qualifying loss against Kosovo on Monday. The defeat led to the sacking of manager Jon Dahl Tomasson as the Swedes are virtually out of contention to qualify for the tournament in North America next summer. This was Sweden's second consecutive home loss during the October international window.

Alexander Isak and Viktor Gyokeres were signed for a combined £185 million ($247m), becoming two of the most controversial transfer stories of the summer, but the pair flopped spectacularly when it mattered most for their country after they failed to hit the target during a damaging 2-0 defeat by Switzerland. The defeat leaves Sweden’s World Cup hopes hanging by a thread.

Viktor Gyokeres has been defended from critics that “don’t have a clue about football”, with Sweden manager Jon Dahl Tomasson of the opinion that his star striker remains in decent form. That is despite the prolific forward enduring a barren run at Arsenal on the back of his big-money move from Sporting over the summer. Gyokeres has failed to find the target through his last six appearances for the Gunners.

Liverpool new boy Alexander Isak has claimed that "not everyone has the whole picture" on his controversial Newcastle exit. Isak forced through a British-record transfer to Anfield on deadline day after accusing Newcastle of "broken promises" and essentially going on strike. The striker is currently on national team duty with Sweden and played his first competitive match since May against Kosovo.

New Liverpool signing Alexander Isak has decided to shun all media duties while on Sweden duty after his record-breaking transfer from Newcastle.

Liverpool have signed Alexander Isak from Newcastle United for a British transfer record fee of £125 million (€144.5m/$169.3m).

Jon Dahl Tomasson has drafted Alexander Isak into his squad for Sweden's first set of 2026 World Cup qualifiers despite his continued Newcastle exile. Isak has yet to feature this season for the Magpies as he pushes for a transfer to Liverpool, raising questions over his fitness and readiness. But Tomasson believes the striker’s quality is too good to ignore.
