Alex Isak Set to Return to Training This Week
Alex Isak, a 26-year-old Swedish striker and club record signing for £125 million, is scheduled to return to training this week following a lengthy recovery from an ankle injury that required surgery. Head coach Slot confirmed that Isak will join the team for training on Thursday, marking his first return to group activities since sustaining a fibula fracture during a match against Tottenham Hotspur on December 20.
Isak has made 16 appearances for the club, scoring three goals before his injury. Slot expressed optimism about Isak's condition, stating he is in a good place as he prepares for the upcoming FA Cup quarter-final against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday at 12:45 BST.
The coach noted that Isak has worked hard over the past three to four months to regain fitness.
