Alexander Isak has been signed for £125 million from Newcastle, according to Liverpool.

An agreement for the Sweden international to join the Anfield club is now in place, according to sources close to the deal.

Prior to completing a six-year contract with the club, Isak will go for a medical on Monday.

An earlier this month’s rejection of Liverpool’s original £110m offer resulted in their first-choice summer target.

Season 2 of Love Is Blind UK has now come to an end, with the explosive reunion episode on Sunday night revealing which marriages have lasted months on from when the cameras stopped rolling.

In the Netflix show’s season 2 finale, we saw three couples tie the knot: Kieran and Megan, Billy and Ashleigh and Kal and Sarover.

In the interim, Katisha chose to leave her relationship with Javen ahead of their wedding day and make the difficult choice to reject Jed at the altar.

Only one couple, Kieran and Megan, remain together during the reunion, while the other two, who had finished filming, called it quits.

Four Love Is Blind UK season 2 stars sat down for an exclusive interview to discuss their experiences on the Netflix series, including the agonizing experience of watching their wedding episodes after their relationships ended.

Ashleigh began by admitting that it felt like they were “living double the trauma” and that we could only talk about the weddings together. Because of what, ” “

As Ashleigh continued, “That was horrible,” Kateshka confirmed. “We were all sobbing on one bed. All four of us sob inexplicably as the two become [position] intertwined.

Then, Bardha expanded, “I think it was really difficult to watch. And we were unsure of our reaction.

She continued, citing the mutual support they had established and said, “It was just so nice to have each other and support each other through that.” I don’t believe I could have watched that by myself, for example.

We wept for one another, according to Sarover, who sadly observed how tightly they were tying their hands.

Ashleigh continued, “This is real lives, this is real people,” by referring to their time on the show.

“We really got married, we really went through breakups, and it’s been difficult, you know, with comments as well.

Because we’ve been away from talking about it for a year, you have to cut out that outside noise. So, in reality, we are currently experiencing twice as much trauma.

Sarover said, “It’s really bittersweet to watch it back because I really feel like we were all in love when we were filming, and it’s bittersweet memories because of what happens later. It’s a challenging watch.

Love Is Blind star Ashleigh says ‘things got icy’ as she reveals when Billy ‘walked away’

Ashleigh, a Love Is Blind fan in the UK, revealed when their relationship ended after their wedding day when things got “icy.”

*Warning: Season 2 of Love Is Blind UK may contain spoilers. *

Season 2 of Love Is Blind UK may be over, but last night’s reunion episode demonstrated that plenty of drama has taken place since the cameras stopped rolling.

In the second season of the Netflix series, we saw three pairs tie the knot: Kieran and Megan, Kal and Sarover and Billy and Ashleigh.

However, it appears that the latter two couples have since decided to end their relationship once the show has finished filming.

After previously expressing concerns about how their different work schedules would affect the relationship, fans were concerned that Billy would turn Ashleigh down at the altar.

Ashleigh, the manager of the cabin crew, revealed in an exclusive interview that they no longer speak much about their relationship after their split.

She revealed that Sarover and Kal, who also tied the knot on the show but wed shortly after, had their relationship “within a day.”

There was a follow-up conversation two weeks after their difficult breakup, Ashleigh explained.

He said “yes,” but we left the experiment, and I was like, “This is all I needed.” By saying that yes, this will work, Billy has reassured me.

She continued, “This is the real deal, he’s getting married for the second time.”

“Unfortunately, it wasn’t the real deal, and he left without a fight. He was just walking away from me after three months of thinking I was solving problems and anticipating the future.

She remarked, “And I think when you fall in love with someone, you become even more in love with them when the cameras are turned off and it’s just us now.”

But I began to feel cold and icy toward him, and my family and friends saw Billy’s side.

She acknowledged that “and he walked away in January with no fight,” adding that Sarover also confirmed that she and Kal “don’t speak either.”

Sarover shared a similar opinion about her relationship with Kal, saying, “We tried to make it work, but he just ended it blind.”

He simply walked away, saying, “That’s it, there was no conversation to be had.”

In addition, Katisha and Javen have parted ways after her decision to leave the process too soon, and Jed and Bardha have also called it quits after Bardha said “no” to Jed at the altar.

However, the experiment has yielded a happy marriage, as Kieran and Megan have both confirmed that their relationship is still “all plain sailing.”

Graham wins fourth successive road race world title

Fin Graham’s fourth consecutive road race World Championship victory came from Belgium, where he collected nine medals for Great Britain’s paracyclists.

Graham, 25, launched an attack in the closing kilometer and held off France’s Thomas Peyroton Dartet for the C3 crown.

Two days prior to Ronse’s bronze time trial victory, he won.

To win a first world title in 2022 was a dream come true, and I had no idea what I would do with it now, to hold it for the fourth year in a row, he said.

It was incredible to do it in Belgium with that crowd. It was such a difficult race for me because I was made to work for it.

It marked the conclusion of our squad’s fantastic week. As a Paralympic champion, keeping this title is very special. It still feels like a pinch me to race in the rainbow stripes for another year. I’ll never get tired of watching the rainbow bands go down.

Morgan Newberry won the same color in the C5 equivalent earlier on Sunday while Sophie Unwin and her pilot Jenny Holl took bronze in the women’s B road race.

On Friday, both riders took home silver in their respective time trials.

Archie Atkinson won the bronze medal in the C4 road race, and Felix Barrow placed third in the T2 race.
