LIVERPOOL OFFICIALLY FEAR ALEXANDER ISAK SUFFERED A SEASON-ENDING BROKEN LEFT LEG
Liverpool fear record signing Alexander Isak has a broken leg after a "horror" collision during the 2-1 Spurs win.
Liverpool is worried that Alexander Isak, their most expensive signing ever, might be out for a while. He hurt his leg in Saturday's 2-1 win at Tottenham. The 26-year-old got hurt while scoring the first goal. He landed weirdly after a late tackle from Spurs defender Micky van de Ven.
The tackle left Isak grabbing his leg, clearly in pain. He couldn't even celebrate with his teammates. Medics checked him out before he limped off, replaced by Jeremie Frimpong, who later got subbed off himself after Richarlison hit him in the face.
Word is, an MRI will confirm Liverpool's fear that their £125m summer signing has a broken leg. Right after the game, Liverpool's coach Arne Slot said, It's hard to know exactly what's wrong. It's never good when he collides with a defender after a goal. We hope he's okay, but we'll have to see.
This injury is a tough blow for Liverpool. It leaves them with only Hugo Ekitike as a fit striker, since Cody Gakpo is out until next year and Mohamed Salah is at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Isak hasn't had the easiest start at Liverpool, with just three goals in 16 games. But he seemed to be finding his form after a cool finish past Spurs goalie Guglielmo Vicario.
Isak will remember what he learned at Newcastle, where injuries also messed with his start there.
When he first moved to Newcastle from Real Sociedad, Isak only played three games before hurting his thigh while playing for his country. He still scored 54 Premier League goals for Newcastle in three seasons. He later said Newcastle's careful approach to his recovery was key to his comeback.
Isak told Fotbollskanalen, I hurt my thigh. The first six months at Newcastle were hard, and it took time to recover. But it was still okay because I got to play three games and show what I could do a bit.
The team did so well that it took the pressure off me. I could focus on getting better instead of feeling like the team needed me. It helped, but it wasn't easy.
Isak missed four games near the end of October and start of November with a groin issue. Now, he might be out for six months if the scans show a broken leg.
It's up to his teammates to keep the team going and ease some of the pressure on Isak because of his big price tag. If they don't, the disappointment about his rough start at Liverpool will only get worse.
WHY LIVERPOOL SCOUTS BELIEVE BRADLEY BARCOLA IS THE PERFECT HEIR TO MOHAMED SALAH
Liverpool turns to PSG winger Bradley Barcola after missing out on Antoine Semenyo to rivals Manchester City today.
Liverpool is eyeing Paris Saint-Germain's Bradley Barcola after missing out on Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo.
Semenyo looks set to join Manchester City when the transfer window opens in January. Apparently, Pep Guardiola's team was his first choice.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano mentioned that Liverpool might bring in one or two players in January, even after their big spending spree over the summer.
Liverpool spent over £400m on fresh faces this summer, but they still need more players after a bad first half of the season.
The Reds will probably try to shore up their defence in January if they can. They might also add another attacker after Alexander Isak got hurt in their 2-1 win against Tottenham.
There's also some uncertainty about Mohamed Salah's future, which has made Liverpool want attacking players even more, although he's likely staying at Anfield until summer.
Caught Offside claims that PSG's Barcola is now a top pick for either the January window or next summer, since Liverpool couldn't get Semenyo.
They say Liverpool's scouts have been watching the French player closely, seeing him as a long-term solution who could improve their attack under Arne Slot.
Apparently, Slot is a big fan of Barcola. The 23-year-old has become a really exciting winger in Ligue 1.
Barcola's still under contract with PSG until 2028, and they want to give him a new deal. But talks about a better contract have reportedly stalled recently.
The hold-up is apparently because Barcola and his people are being cautious. Barcola, who's scored five goals in 13 Ligue 1 games this season, wants to check out all his options.
Even though they didn't get Semenyo, Liverpool still wants a top-notch winger and is ready to invest in the right player instead of rushing into a quick fix.
Liverpool thinks a January transfer for Barcola would be tough, but they believe getting the ball rolling now could give them an edge for the summer.
Back in the summer, PSG boss Luis Enrique said he expected Barcola to be at the Parc des Princes for many more years.
He said in July, "I expect him to play here for many more years, and I think he wants to." So I have no doubt he’ll remain our player.
FABRIZIO ROMANO CONFIRMS LIVERPOOL REMAIN IN THE RACE FOR MARC GUEHI TODAY
Fabrizio Romano confirms Liverpool are still chasing Marc Guehi as European giants prepare January transfer offers
Fabrizio Romano, a well-known journalist, recently mentioned on YouTube that Liverpool is trying to get Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi. Romano said:
Basically, all the big European clubs are after Guehi. They've all called to see what's up with the centre-back at Crystal Palace.
Right now, no club is close to signing him in January. People close to Guehi think he'll probably move in the summer as a transfer to his favourite club, staying at Crystal Palace until then.
Liverpool is interested, and so is Bayern. Other English clubs, like Man City, have also called. Barcelona and Real Madrid checked in around late October/early November, and we'll see if they make an official offer or not.
A lot of clubs want him, but right now, it seems like he'll move in the summer.
Guehi's Good Performance in English Football
Guehi has been playing well for the London club this season, with many good defensive displays. The 25-year-old has two goals and four assists in 27 games for Crystal Palace in all competitions this season.
The English player has been strong in his own half, averaging 27 tackles, ten blocks, 18 interceptions, and 85 clearances in the Premier League. He's also been good at passing the ball out from the back, completing 84.6% of his passes in the English top tier (stats from fbref.com).
Should Liverpool's New Manager, Arne Slot, Sign Guehi Next Year?
Guehi is good at tackling and times his challenges well to win the ball back. He clears the ball when he needs to and can also play it out from the back.
At 25, Guehi has his best years coming up. He would definitely make Liverpool's defence better.
Guehi would also be a good replacement for Ibrahima Konate, whose contract is ending soon at Liverpool. With all this in mind, it would be smart for Slot to sign him this January or next summer.
