Viktor Gyokeres speaks about “player power” while working on Alexander Isaac’s British record transfer to Liverpool

Isaac arrived late to the national team following the blockbuster move to Anfield and met his teammates on Monday, but did not train until Tuesday.

“I haven’t talked much with him because he’s just here,” Gyoker said of Isak’s arrival. “So, yeah, I said to him ‘Hello’ and congratulated him on the move.

The pair had similar circumstances surrounding the transfer, thwarting the movement of dreams within the controversial exit.

“Yeah, I said about my situation before. I think it’s the same as you really don’t know what’s going on (scene).

“It’s hard to talk about that because I really don’t know that the situation was exactly that situation.”

Isak and Gyoker shared the Swedish pitch 12 times, and made 18 goals as they made two appearances for the Under-19 side and formed a terrifying duo.

They finally defeated Azerbaijan 6-0, 6-0 in November last year, with Gyoker fired for four goals.

Sweden will begin the World Cup qualifying process when they face Slovenia on Friday before traveling to Kosovo the following Monday.

“We played some games together and felt very good in those games,” added Gyoker.

“He scored, he scored, we helped each other, so yes, I think it’s good to go that path and try to improve on the team more and continue like that.”

But Gyoker believes that it is the club that has the power, pointing out that if players don’t want the club they have no say on the issue.

“We’re all playing. I think the clubs are the most powerful. Yeah, in many cases it can be difficult for players to choose.

“If a player is not wanted at a club, I think it’s the complete opposite, you know, and he has no power.

“Yeah, that’s difficult, but that’s the situation.”
