""Alex has been on the pitch, not with his football boots but with his running shoes for the first time this week, so that will take a while as well," the Liverpool boss said. "I think we all know the moment you go onto the pitch it doesn't take three months anymore but these final stages of rehab can also make things change.""
""When you are back with the group that is not to say you are ready to play, let alone start a game a game of football because again he's been out for months and the last time he was out for months we could all see it took him a while before he was the player who we signed from Newcastle.""
Alexander Isak has been progressing through late-stage rehabilitation and has returned to the pitch in running shoes, signalling potential return to group training this season. The striker suffered both leg and ankle breaks in December during Liverpool's win over Tottenham and has endured a difficult start at Anfield following his summer transfer. Recovery timelines remain cautious because final rehab stages can produce setbacks, and returning to the training group does not imply match readiness. The manager expects Isak to be available if recovery goes as planned, with an anticipated return around late March or early April.
