23 Oct
Summary
- Striker Alexander Isak forced off at half-time with groin problem
- Jeremie Frimpong also limped off with hamstring injury
- Arne Slot hopes Isak's issue is not serious, but expects Frimpong to be out for weeks
On 2025-10-23, Liverpool secured an emphatic 5-1 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League. However, the win came at a price, as the Reds suffered two key injuries during the match.
Striker Alexander Isak, who had been making his mark on the game, was forced to leave the pitch at half-time due to a groin problem. Liverpool manager Arne Slot expressed hope that the issue is not too serious, stating, "I'm hoping that this isn't a bad one because if he would be out now for a few weeks that would put him back a lot."
Defender Jeremie Frimpong also had to be substituted in the first half after aggravating a hamstring injury. This was the second time this season that Frimpong has suffered a hamstring problem, and Slot expects the Dutchman to be sidelined for several weeks.
