Leeds United New Year opponents fear 'significant injury' for star attacker

Leeds United’s New Year opponents, defending Premier League champions Liverpool, face a potential blow, with fears a star attacker has suffered a 'significant injury'.

According to the Liverpool Echo, the club’s £125m record summer signing is awaiting MRI results on Monday after a lower-leg problem, and Liverpool are braced for significant damage while declining to speculate on its severity.

After a goalless first half at Tottenham, Alexander Isak was introduced at the interval and put his side ahead on 56 minutes. He was caught by Micky van den Ven as he scored, then was forced off.

Slot’s side have recorded three straight wins, first in the Champions League then in their next two Premier League matches, the latest a 2-1 victory at Tottenham in a Saturday teatime game.

Leeds travel to Anfield on New Year’s Day, 26 days after the 3-3 draw at Elland Road.
