Scans confirm Liverpool striker Alexander Isak's left leg was broken during the club's victory against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
Alexander Isak has sustained a fracture in his left leg and undergone surgery, Liverpool have confirmed.
The club are yet to outline a timescale on Isak's recovery but the Sweden striker is expected to be sidelined for at least a few months.
Liverpool said the 26-year-old "successfully underwent surgery" on an "ankle injury that included a fibula fracture".
Isak came off the bench to score for Arne Slot's side at Tottenham on Saturday but was injured by a challenge from Micky van de Ven just after getting his shot away for the goal and was unable to continue. He was in visible discomfort and helped off the pitch by medical staff.
The forward, who signed for a Premier League record £125m in the summer, has scored three goals in 16 appearances for Liverpool since making the move from Newcastle in September.
Slot is next due to speak at his press conference on Tuesday morning (09:00 GMT).
