JAKARTA - Liverpool is anxiously waiting to find out how serious the injury suffered by Alexander Isak in the 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday, December 21, 2025 WIB. The Reds are worried that the problem could be serious.
Isak scored the opening goal in Liverpool's win in London, but was immediately forced off the field after a hard tackle from Spurs defender Micky van de Ven inside the penalty area.
Launching ESPN, the striker is suspected of having an injury to the lower part of his leg and an MRI scan is needed to determine the severity of the problem.
If Isak has to be out for a long time, it will be a big blow for a player who has struggled for form and fitness since his £125m move from Newcastle United last summer.
His goal against Spurs was only the second goal for Arne Slot's team in the English League and was created after a clever pass from Florian Wirtz.
Isak's absence will also cause problems for Arne Slot as he has to face a holiday period with an increasingly depleted squad.
Attacker Cody Gakpo is currently out due to a muscle problem, while Mohamed Salah is defending Egypt at the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.
"I have no news about him. If a player scores a goal and then gets injured and doesn't try to get back on the field, it's usually not a good thing. However, I can't say more than that."
"It's just a feeling, but there's nothing to say medically. I haven't spoken to him. Fortunately he scored. A good goal helped by Florian Wirtz," Arne Slot said about Isak's injury.
