Alexander Isak remains a doubt for Sunday’s Champions League decider against Everton.

Confidential has been told that the striker’s chances of making the game are rated as 50-50, and that his inclusion in the Sweden squad for their June internationals is not an indicator of him overcoming his groin issue.

Isak missed Sunday’s 1-0 defeat at Arsenal after feeling stiffness in his groin. He had travelled with the squad and underwent a scan in London.

The late withdrawal gave rise to hope among supporters that it was a precautionary measure with the Everton game in mind.
