Mohamed Salah Liverpool Transfer Verdict Repeated as Alexander Isak Debut Hint Dropped - Liverpool Echo
Liverpool aims to maintain their winning streak in the Premier League and boost Champions League prospects as new signing Alexander Isak may debut, with fitness management key.
- On Wednesday, Liverpool could hand Alexander Isak his debut as he joins the matchday squad for the Champions League game at Anfield on September 17, 2025, though Arne Slot confirmed he will not play 90 minutes.
- Having missed pre-season, Isak has been eased back into team work after an 18-minute Sweden national team cameo, prompting Liverpool to manage his match fitness cautiously.
- Medical advice will determine Isak's minutes, with Arne Slot confirming he could play 45 minutes on Wednesday but that would rule him out against Everton on Saturday.
- Atletico Madrid arrive missing key players, including Julian Alvarez, while Liverpool supporters hope Isak's introduction boosts their strong starting XI at Anfield.
- Liverpool's �450m summer spending, led by Isak's �125m fee, is partly offset by about �300m in player sales, says Arne Slot.
