Alexander Isak fractured his leg after being caught by Micky van de Ven during the process of scoring on Saturday
Liverpool confirmed Alexander Isak fractured his left leg while scoring the opening goal in Saturday's win against Tottenham.
The £125m summer signing underwent surgery for an ankle injury that included a fibula fracture.
No specific timeline has been provided for his return, but he is expected to be sidelined for at least a few months.
This injury adds to a difficult start to Isak's Liverpool career, following previous fitness issues and a groin injury.
His absence further depletes Liverpool's attacking options, with Cody Gakpo also injured and Mohamed Salah away at the Africa Cup of Nations.
