Isak has had a penchant for the No. 14 shirt throughout his senior career, wearing the number at AIK, Borussia Dortmund and Newcastle United.
The move to The Reds was sealed this morning for a big fee of 130 Million Pounds.
The striker started out with the Nos. 30 and 36 with his boyhood club AIK before joining Dortmund in 2017.
Ultimately, his career in the Ruhr region didn’t pan out, and after a loan to Willem II in 2018–19, where he wore the No. 9 shirt, Isak joined Real Sociedad.
Isak stuck with No. 19 during his three years in San Sebastián.
For the national team, Liverpool’s newest hitman has primarily worn the much-desired No. 9 shirt, but he’s also had Nos. 8, 10, 11, 14 and 15 on his back while representing his country.
Liverpool Available Shirt Numbers, Federico Chiesa currently has Isak’s preferred No. 14, and the Italian has manifested his value off the bench at the start of his second season. The Swede’s arrival, though, will limit his influence moving forward.
It’s pretty obvious where Isak will head on the shirt number front on Merseyside, after Darwin Núñez vacated the No.
9 earlier this summer when he moved to the Saudi Pro League. With Ekitiké taking No. 22, many suspected the club were waiting for Isak to succeed the chaotic Uruguayan and become the latest star to wear No. 9 at Anfield.
Nos. 16, 20, 21, 23, 24, 27 and 29 are also available. Perhaps Marc Guéhi will take one of those instead. –si.com
