Alexander Isak Closes in on Liverpool Return

Liverpool manager Arne Slot has provided a positive fitness update on striker Alexander Isak, who is nearing a return from injury.

Isak has been sidelined for two months following surgery to repair a fibula and ankle fracture sustained during Liverpool's win over Tottenham on December 20.

The £125million striker's recovery is progressing well as he looks to rejoin the squad.
