Wayne Rooney, the renowned legendary striker, spoke about Alexander Isak after his long-term injury, noting that he has yet to justify the large sum Liverpool invested in him.
On 3 Feb 2026 GMT+7, Wayne Rooney, the legendary striker of Manchester United—the famous Premier League club—commented on Swedish forward Alexander Isak, who is currently sidelined by a long-term injury and has yet to prove worth the hefty fee Liverpool paid for him.
Looking back to the end of the summer transfer window, Alexander Isak moved from Newcastle United to Anfield for a massive £125 million, approximately 5.386 billion baht. However, he has struggled with adapting and injuries, managing only 3 goals in 16 appearances across all competitions.
Recently, Wayne Rooney stated, "I think maybe he has to blame himself. Such a record-breaking transfer in England clearly has negative effects on him. He wants to make history, move to a bigger club, and win titles, but now everything is the opposite. When he recovers, he must start by fighting to break into the starting lineup."
