Isak’s head coach, Arne Slot, described the issue as a “really small” problem. However, it is significant enough to keep him off the pitch. Earlier in the season, Isak suffered a broken fibula that also hampered his contributions.

Since transferring from Newcastle for 130 million pounds, Isak has scored four goals in 21 games for Liverpool. His absence is felt keenly; Slot noted that missing both Mohamed Salah and Isak during the week was a blow.

Key facts:

• Isak expected to miss the match against Manchester United on May 3, 2026.
• The injury occurred during a training session prior to the match.
• Cody Gakpo started as center forward in Isak’s absence.

Slot expressed hope that Isak would return to fitness the following week. Yet, the exact timeline for his return remains unclear as he is set to undergo an exam to determine the severity of the injury.

This season has been challenging for Isak due to multiple injuries. Liverpool will need him fit if they hope to compete effectively in the Premier League going forward.
