Alan Shearer has provided an optimistic update on Alexander Isak's fitness ahead of Newcastle United's Carabao Cup final against Liverpool. With a stellar record of 21 goals this season, Isak's availability is crucial for Newcastle's chances of securing their first piece of silverware in a long time. Shearer noted Newcastle's careful management of Isak, emphasizing that Newcastle manager Eddie Howe will likely prioritize Isak's health over upcoming matches. Liverpool, currently in excellent form, will pose a significant challenge, making Isak's fitness of utmost importance to Newcastle's success.
From what I'm hearing, he's going to be fine for the (Carabao Cup) final, Shearer said on The Rest Is Football podcast. I guess that's what Eddie Howe has to factor in over the next two weekends.
If there is even a two percent chance with a doubt about someone, then I guess he is just going to leave them out in preparation for the final. I don't blame him for that.
