The club’s press release arrives: the striker, injured on Saturday against Tottenham during his goal, has already undergone surgery
Bad news at Liverpool. Arne Slot, already struggling with a problematic season, will have to do without Alexander Isak for some time. The striker was injured on Saturday, against Tottenham, after a tackle by Micky van de Ven which did not prevent him from scoring the opening goal for the Reds, his second of this Premier League season. The injury seemed serious right from the start and now confirmation has arrived directly from the club: fibula fracture and surgery already carried out. There is no set return date yet, but there will presumably be several months of absence for the Swede, who this summer Liverpool had snatched from Newcastle for 145 million euros: the most expensive purchase in the history of the Premier League.
