The Premier League's biggest acquisition and his early injury

Alexander Isak is in the final stages of his recovery from an injury he suffered in December last year. The Swedish striker cost Liverpool around $175 million to acquire, making his transfer a record figure for the club and the Premier League.

Liverpool Injury and His Return

He arrived at the Liverpool team and was unable to show his potential, or at least did not have time, due to a groin injury that forced him to leave the pitch for a while and begin his recovery period. Today the player is closer to returning and is expected to be back training with the team by the end of March, or failing that, the beginning of April, according to statements by Arne Slot, the coach of the English team.

Swedish striker Alexander Isak, who has been injured since December, is in "the final phase of his rehabilitation", and his return to the English team's collective training is scheduled "for the end of March or the beginning of April", according to Liverpool coach Arne Slot on Thursday, without wanting to be categorical about it.

Pre-injury numbers

Having played only 16 games with the Liverpool team, he scored 3 goals and contributed with one assist, then came the injury that cut short the possible contributions that the Swede could have made.

Arne Slot said that there is still a long way to go for the Swedish player and that the next phases of his recovery will include becoming familiar with the ball again to make it much easier to join Liverpool's group training sessions.
