The Premier League's record signing has suffered a setback: a fibula fracture and ankle injury, surgery has been successful, but the return date remains uncertain.

It's really tough for the Premier League's record signing, Isak... In the 17th round of the Premier League’s big six clash, Liverpool won 2-1 away against Tottenham. Isak started and scored the opening goal to break the deadlock. However, right after scoring, Isak was fouled with a scissor tackle by Tottenham’s Van der Ven, forcing him to leave the field injured.

Now Liverpool has officially announced that Isak has suffered afibula fracture and ankle joint injurya serious injury. The Swedish forward has successfully undergone surgery, but his return date is still unknown.

This summer transfer window, Isak was determined to join Liverpool, even going on strike and refusing to play at Newcastle. Eventually, he secured a move for a staggering €145 million, becoming the Premier League’s record signing. Isak missed the first three rounds of the Premier League due to injury and has faced ongoing bad luck since leaving the Magpies. In this round, Liverpool’s two major billion-euro signings combined well: Wirtz provided his first Premier League assist, and Isak scored his second Premier League goal for Liverpool. It seemed like a promising start for both player and team, but Tottenham played aggressively, and a scissor tackle caused Isak’s severe injury just as he was gaining momentum. He may be out for the rest of the season. We can only hope Isak recovers fully and wish good health to every professional player.
