Liverpool have been dealt a major blow ahead of their Premier League clash this weekend, as summer signing Alexander Isak has once again been ruled out due to injury. The Swedish striker, who joined the Reds earlier this summer in a high-profile move, has not yet recovered from his latest setback and will miss another crucial game, according to reports.
Isak’s absence is a significant concern for manager Arne Slot, who has been eager to see the forward build rhythm in his debut season at Anfield. The 25-year-old made a promising start to life in Liverpool colours, showcasing his intelligent movement, pace, and sharp finishing. However, recurring injury problems have stalled his momentum, preventing him from establishing a consistent run of form.
The news comes at a time when Liverpool are looking to maintain their strong position in the Premier League table. Slot now faces the challenge of reshuffling his attack once again, few players likely to share responsibilities up front in Isak’s absence.
