Arne Slot confirms Isak will be fit for Liverpool’s trip to PSG next month

• Record signing has been injured since December

• Salah to miss Saturday’s league match at Brighton

Arne Slot has confirmed Alexander Isak will be available for Liverpool’s Champions League quarter-final against Paris Saint-Germain as he nears recovery from a fractured leg.

The £125m British-record signing has not played since 20 December and has yet to resume full training but, in a boost to Liverpool’s prospects of overcoming the European champions, he is on schedule to feature when the teams meet at the Parc des Princes on 8 April. Isak will clearly not be ready to start after almost four months out but will offer Slot an option from the bench.
