A well-known journalist from The Athletic revealed bad news about Isak after a heavy tackle prevented him from celebrating his goal in Liverpool's win over Tottenham Hotspur.
On 22 Dec 2025 GMT+7, David Ornstein, a prominent journalist from The Athletic, disclosed worrying news for Liverpool fans, stating that Alexander Isak, the Reds' expensive forward, could have sustained a severe injury, possibly a fracture, and may face several months of recovery.
The incident occurred during the match where Liverpool narrowly defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 at home last Saturday night. The 26-year-old Isak was brought on early in the second half and made an impact within just 11 minutes by scoring the opening goal for his team.
However, he was unable to celebrate as Mickey van de Ven executed a heavy sliding tackle on his ankle, causing an injury that required medical staff to support him off the field. Jeremy Frimpong was then substituted on, amid widespread concern from Liverpool fans worldwide.
