Liverpool, known as the 'Reds,' faced a shock with the latest bad news ahead of their clash against Manchester United in the Red Derby.
The Sun, a well-known English tabloid, reported that Alexander Isak, the Swedish international striker for Liverpool, will miss the Premier League Red Derby match as they visit Manchester United tonight (Sunday, 3 May 2026).
In his first season with Liverpool, the 26-year-old striker faces another disappointment as Isak will miss the game against Manchester United after suffering a groin injury during training this week.
He must undergo a medical examination to assess the severity of the injury and determine whether the £130 million player can play again this season.
Isak has scored only 4 goals in 21 appearances for Liverpool across all competitions since transferring from Newcastle United, with injuries playing a significant role.
However, the news of Isak missing the Red Derby still awaits official confirmation, as currently only The Sun has reported it.
