Alexander Isak
26-Year-Old
Liverpool
Premier
OUT
Injury Leg
Est. Return 4/25/2026
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Isak is coming off his best season as a professional, lighting the league up with a career-high 23 goals, finishing second in the Golden Boot race. He added six assists and had multi-goal contribution games in six different outings. While seemingly dealing with a nagging injury the majority of the second half of the season, he battled through and started 34 matches. His summer has been thrown into disarray as he pushes for a move away from Newcastle. With reports that he is refusing to play for the club again it's hard to see him suiting up on Tyneside during the 2025/26 campaign. If he does get his move to Liverpool he would remain one of the top strikers in the league and an elite option in all competitions.
Fears of broken leg
Isak (leg) is suspected to have suffered a broken leg, according to David Ornstein of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Isak is receiving some news Sunday, but not to the fullest extent, with the injury still to be confirmed, but feared of suffering a broken leg. This is better than the initial fear of a torn ACL, as he will still miss time, but a much shorter absence and a much easier recovery. He will still be likely to miss multiple months if true, a rough development for the massive summer signing, pushing Hugo Ekitike into an even bigger role than he already had.

Scores, suffers scary injury
Isak would score one goal on one shot in Saturday's match against Tottenham before exiting the field with an apparent knee injury, according to manager Arne Slot, per James Pearce of The Athletic. "I don't have any news on him, but if a player scores, gets injured, and doesn't come back on the pitch or doesn't try to come back, it's usually not a good thing. I cannot say anything more than that. That is just a gut feeling and nothing more than that. Nothing medical to say about it."

Dealing with knock
Isak suffered a knock in the first half of Tuesday's win against Inter but will likely be available for Saturday's clash against Brighton, coach Arne Slot said in the press conference. "But Alex also got a knock in the first half, so let's see how he has recovered from that today - if he's able to start tomorrow and, if he's able, I make the decision to start them again together or we do it in a different way."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reds to launch final bid?
Liverpool are expected to launch a final bid for Isak, according to The Telegraph.
ANALYSIS
Liverpool only have a few days to get a deal done for Isak, and they're set to launch what would be a new British transfer record to secure the services of the Swede. Liverpool are expected to make an improved £130 million offer for the 25-year-old, but the add-ons and bonuses on the deal would make this transfer the most expensive one in Premier League history. It's unclear if Newcastle would be open to accept such offer, though.
