Overview
- Arne Slot confirmed Tuesday that Isak will not start against Paris Saint‑Germain but is fit to play from the bench after close to a week of full training.
- Isak trained with the squad on Tuesday morning and was included in a 21‑man group that flew from John Lennon Airport to Paris for the quarter‑final first leg.
- He returns after 15 weeks out following December surgery on an ankle injury that included a fibula fracture suffered while scoring against Tottenham.
- Liverpool remain without Alisson Becker, Wataru Endo, Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni, which narrows selection options for the trip to the Parc des Princes.
- Signed for a British‑record £125 million and limited to three goals in 16 games so far, Isak’s availability offers a timely attacking option as pressure grows after the 4-0 FA Cup loss at Manchester City.
