"Liverpool head coach Arne Slot has confirmed Alexander Isak will be in the matchday squad for his team's Champions League clash with Atlético Madrid."
"Isak completed a British-record £125 million ($170.5m) move to Anfield on deadline day but was not involved in Liverpool's late win over Burnley on Sunday."
""There is definitely a chance because he is in the squad," Slot told a news conference on Tuesday. "Then there's a chance to play. It's 100% sure that he will not play 90 minutes. It's already a Champions League game to look forward to and it's a chance he could play tomorrow. The only thing that is sure is he will not play 90. All the rest we will see.""
