Slot Encourages Patience for Isak’s Complete Integration into Liverpool Squad

Forward Alexander Isak, who is looking to join Liverpool, didn’t participate fully in training over the summer. This has affected his physical condition, as stated by head coach Arne Slot.

Details: The Dutch coach confirmed earlier reports that Isak has a long way to go before he’s ready to play a full match. However, Liverpool remains confident, as they believe Isak will eventually be a valuable asset.

Quote: “Don’t expect him to play the full 90 minutes in every match. That definitely won’t happen in the coming weeks. He missed out on a proper pre-season and has been away from team training for about three to four months.

So now we need to ease him in gradually. This will be a challenge. But we didn’t sign him just for the next few weeks—we signed him for six years,” Slot said.
