Isak Scores and Limps Off Injured

Dec 21, 2025

Liverpool boss Arne Slot says it’s too soon to determine the extent of Alexander Isak’s injury in their 2-1 Premier League win over Tottenham.  

The striker limped off after scoring the opening goal, following a challenge from Mickey van de Ven.  

Meanwhile, reports suggest that Isak sustained an injury to his lower leg and NOT his knee as initially feared, but a scan will soon be held to confirm this.  

The result means Liverpool have extended their unbeaten run to 6 matches, and are currently in in 5th place in the standings.
