Liverpool's Isak Out for Two Months
Alexander Isak, a footballer who plays for Liverpool, got hurt in a game against Tottenham.
He broke his ankle and fibula when a defender tackled him while he was scoring a goal.
He had surgery, and his coach said he will be out for two months.
Liverpool paid a lot of money to get him from another team, but he hasn't scored many goals yet.
Some people think the tackle was normal, while others think it was reckless.
Now, Liverpool might need to find another player to help their team.
Liverpool striker Alexander Isak suffered a broken ankle and fibula during a match against Tottenham Hotspur.
