Liverpool handed huge boost as Alexander Isak issues fitness update | OneFootball

Reds’ record signing has not completed a full match yet

Alexander Isak has given a big update on his fitness while away on international duty with Sweden.

The Liverpool striker, who joined the Reds in a British record transfer from Newcastle back in the summer, is yet to play a full match for his new side.

However, Isak has now declared himself fully fit, and in a much better position than he was in the first international break, where he made a singular substitute appearance in a 2-0 defeat by Kosovo.

“Tomorrow I am ready for 90 minutes if needed,” the striker told reporters ahead of Sweden’s World Cup qualifier against Switzerland on Friday.

“It has been a month now. I have gotten a lot more playing time, and things have calmed down. I feel in a much better position now than last time.”

Isak also opened up on his first month as a Liverpool player.

“Great so far,” he continued.

“A great team and a city where the team has a good relationship with the fans. It has been great so far.”

Isak has played six games in all competitions for his new employers, netting his first and only goal so far in their League Cup victory over Southampton.
