Liverpool announces Isak surgery following fibula fracture
Liverpool has announced that Alexander Isak has undergone surgery after incurring a fractured fibula during the match against Tottenham on Saturday. The Swedish forward scored as a substitute at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, but sustained the injury due to a rough challenge from Micky van de Ven while he was finishing the play. Isak left the field clearly in pain, and Liverpool was awaiting details regarding the severity of his injury. It has since been confirmed that Isak has indeed fractured his fibula, and although the recovery timeline remains uncertain, he is anticipated to be out of action for a number of months.
Alexander Isak has successfully completed surgery today for the injury sustained on Saturday.

“Following evaluation, a procedure was performed today to address an ankle injury that also included a fibula fracture,” a statement from Liverpool indicated. “Isak’s rehabilitation will now take place at the AXA Training Centre.” Since joining Arne Slot’s team in a British-record transfer from Newcastle, Isak has faced challenges in making a significant impact. His goal against Spurs marked only his third in 16 matches across all competitions.
