Impact Isak is making steady progress in his return from an ankle injury that sidelined him for over three months, and starting the PSG fixture is a significant step up from the 12-minute cameo he managed in the first leg. With Hugo Ekitike (Achilles) now ruled out for months, Isak's gradual return takes on added urgency for Liverpool, who will need him firing on all cylinders for the final stretch of the season. Cody Gakpo could see more time as the central striker while Isak builds his way back to full sharpness, with coach Slot clearly committed to managing his minutes carefully to avoid any setbacks.

Liverpool player ratings vs Fulham: Unleash Mohamed Salah AND Rio Ngumoha against PSG! Reds wingers prove their worth as Arne Slot's side boost Champions League hopes

Building form off bench Isak is fully available and featured for 12 minutes in Wednesday's Champions League clash against PSG, as he is expected to build his form off bench, according to coach Arne Slot....

Impact Isak has been sidelined for over three months following ankle surgery and is now working his way back through cameo appearances off the bench before pushing for a starting role. The Swedish striker has had a difficult debut season at Anfield, managing just two goals in 10 Premier League appearances, and coach Slot's acknowledgment that it took him a while to find form last time around suggests the club will be patient in rebuilding his confidence. Hugo Ekitike has filled the attacking void admirably during his absence, making the competition for a starting spot an interesting subplot to follow as the season heads into its final stretch.

Fit for bench Isak (ankle) is on the bench for Wednesday's match against PSG.

Impact Isak is back in the squad Sunday and on the bench as expected, fit for a return but not starting time. This is a major return not just for the club but for the sport, as the massive and expensive summer signing is finally fit again after over three months out. Even when he was previously fit, his start with Liverpool has not been easy, recording two goals in 10 appearances (six starts) while being outplayed by fellow forward Hugo Ekitike.

Traveling for UCL play Isak (ankle) is in the traveling squad for Wednesday's match against PSG.

Impact Isak is still eyeing a return Wednesday as his chance to make that happen continues to rise, with the forward now traveling with the team. This is major news for the Swedish forward and his club, as the mega summer-signing has not played since December due to the injury. His prospects of seeing the field Wednesday are still up in the air, very unlikely to start immediately, but having a chance of featuring off the bench later in the match if the flow of the game allows him to.

Not available Saturday Isak (ankle) is ruled out for Saturday's FA Cup clash against Manchester City.

Impact Isak has been unable to make it back in time despite being close to a return, remaining sidelined since December following ankle surgery. The forward had only two training sessions under his belt heading into the weekend, leaving coach Arne Slot unwilling to take any risks with his fitness. With just two goals in 10 appearances this campaign, Liverpool will have to wait a little longer before welcoming back their striker.

Impact Isak has been sidelined since December following ankle surgery, making Saturday's potential return a significant milestone in what has been a frustratingly disrupted season. With only two training sessions under his belt heading into the weekend, coach Arne Slot will not throw him straight into the fire, but even a few minutes off the bench against Manchester City would be a welcome sign of life for a forward who has managed just two goals in 10 appearances this campaign.

Impact Isak has received a huge boost to his return as he is set to see the training field again, joining his teammates for the first time since his injury and subsequent surgery in December. This further reinforces the thought that the forward will be an option heading into the UCL quarterfinals that start in a week, although that will still depend on his development, not wanting to risk further injury after the long absence. He will likely need to see a good week of training before a return is even thought of, hoping to reclaim the form he saw in previous seasons, only with two goals in his minimal 10 appearances (six starts) this season.

Impact Isak could be expected to make a gradual return to action after the March international break, as he hasn't played since Dec. 20 and has only trained individually in recent weeks. If his recovery continues to progress as expected, the striker may have some chances to produce in the final stretch of the campaign. Until then, Hugo Ekitike will be the favored option to lead the front line.

Impact Isak was back on the training field Tuesday but was not yet with his teammates, only training individually. This is a positive update, but it still leaves him a bit away from a return, holding out until some time in April. Either way, this is positive, as he should join his teammates soon.
