**Sweden head coach Graham Potter is not certain that Liverpool striker Alexander Isak will be available to play for his country at the next international break.**
The 26-year-old has been pictured back in the gym after recovering from a fractured leg. However, when asked about Isak’s fitness, along with Tottenham’s Dejan Kulusevski, Potter said that while “there’s a chance” they could be fit, nothing is guaranteed:
“It’s hard to say. There’s still time for them to come back. They’re rehabbing well in their club teams.”
“I hope they can play, but these are big injuries… It’s tough to come back from injuries like that by March, but there’s a chance.”
When is the next international break?
-------------------------------------
Sweden play Ukraine in a World Cup playoff on Thursday, March 26th, which is just under six weeks from now.
If Isak is not back before then, he would have missed a further six Liverpool games – Brighton (FA Cup), Nottingham Forest, West Ham, Wolves, Tottenham and Brighton in the league.
The former Newcastle player has already been sidelined for the last 12 matches, having been [**injured**](https://walkon.com/blog/liverpool-injury-news-joe-gomez-jeremie-frimpong/) during the second half of the 2-1 win over Spurs in mid-December.
Latest Liverpool injury news
----------------------------
Jeremie Frimpong is still on the sidelines with a hamstring injury that he sustained against Qarabag at the end of last month. There is some hope that he will be back for the next Premier League fixture against Nottingham Forest.
Wataru Endo is set to be out for the rest of the campaign with a serious ankle injury he picked up in the second half of the 1-0 win over Sunderland earlier this week.
Conor Bradley and Giovanni Leoni are also long-term absentees due to knee injuries. There is even a chance that the pair could miss the start of next campaign.
