Record signing may play 45 mins vs Atletico

Alexander Isak could make his Liverpool debut tonight against Atletico Madrid, with manager Arne Slot confirming he may play up to 45 minutes. The $169m striker moved from Newcastle this summer and has just six Champions League games under his belt.

Florent Malouda warned Isak must reinvent himself, as every opponent will prepare to stop him. With that price tag, he’ll need to deliver fast — because Anfield fans expect goals, not a live re-enactment of hide and seek.
