Alexander Isak's frustrating start to life at Liverpool will continue this week as the British record signing has been ruled out of Tuesday's clash with Real Madrid and is in a race against time to be fit to face Manchester City at the weekend.
The £125million man has scored just one goal since his much-slated move to Merseyside but has been irked by fitness concerns exacerbated by a recent groin injury.
And ahead of a titanic tussle between English champions Liverpool and 15-time kings of Europe Real Madrid, Slot says Isak is not fit - and is up against it to be on the bench at the Etihad Stadium.
