(FILES) Liverpool's Swedish striker #09 Alexander Isak looks on during the English Premier League football match between Liverpool and Manchester United at Anfield in Liverpool, north west England on October 19, 2025. The Premier League is the envy of the world for its revenue-generating power, yet clubs lost nearly one billion USD last season as the pursuit of on-field success trumped financial security. Liverpool's 125-million pound signing of Alexander Isak set a new record for an English club and was part of a 450-million pound window for the English champions, which has so far failed to reap tangible reward.
