Liverpool’s plan of easing in Alexander Isak after four months out with injury lasted as long as it took Hugo Ekitike to crumple to the ground against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.The French striker has suffered a suspected Achilles tendon rupture and, while the full extent of his injury remains unclear, he will not be playing again this season and could be out for a sizeable chunk of next term, too.Advertisement
