Dec 23 (Reuters) - Liverpool striker Alexander Isak ‌is expected to be sidelined for at least a couple of months after breaking his ‌leg and undergoing surgery, the Premier League club's manager Arne Slot said on Tuesday.

Isak suffered ‌the injury in scoring Liverpool's opening goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over Tottenham Hotspur when his foot got caught between Micky van de Ven's legs as the defender dived to block his shot.
