Arne Slot confirms when Alexander Isak will return for Liverpool from injury

On April 8, Liverpool head coach Arne Slot confirmed striker Alexander Isak will return for the Champions League quarter-final first leg against Paris Saint-Germain as a substitute option.
The £125 million signing has been sidelined since December 20th, when he fractured his leg during a 2-1 win at Tottenham Hotspur, necessitating surgery.
After his press conference on Friday, Slot noted Isak has resumed training but remains unavailable to start, stating "I expect that I can use him for minutes."
Slot cautioned that Isak cannot yet play 45 minutes or 90 minutes after seven or eight months sidelined, limiting his immediate impact against Paris.
Though Slot believes the striker can contribute during the final two months of this campaign, peak performance expectations rest on next season after a full pre-season.
