Isak was withdrawn at the interval during Liverpool's victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in the Champions League last week. The Reds are set to face Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday evening before hosting Aston Villa at Anfield in the Premier League at the weekend, and it's doubtful whether Isak will feature in either fixture.With their club-record signing unavailable, Liverpool have been cautioned that they might need to consider Isak going under the knife to prevent additional injuries moving forward."With Isak, I might have even had an interview earlier this year of last year about the possibility of discussions being had behind the scenes about how best to manage Alexander Isak," injury expert Ben Dinnery told the Liverpool Echo."Is there maybe a need to go under the knife?

That forms a cornerstone for any player for their upcoming campaign."The more sessions and games that you miss during that block, the higher risk you are of picking up an injury. Again, it comes as no surprise that Isak's going to pick up one or two niggles during these early two months for Liverpool."Liverpool supporters will hope that when they go into the second half of the season, they'll start to see an Isak which justifies that price tag."
