Bench option
Isak (undisclosed) is on the bench for Sunday's match against Brentford.
Analysis: Isak is back in the team Sunday despite his doubtful tag, as the forward earns a spot working from the bench. He hopes to see some time on the field to end his rough first campaign with the team, only available for 14 games (eight starts) while recording three goals and one assist.
Trains partially, still doubtful
Isak (undisclosed) completed parts of the training session and remains a doubt for Sunday's season finale against Brentford, according to coach Arne Slot. "Alex trains for the first time with us today, parts of what we are going to do."
Analysis: Isak had been ruled out of Friday's defeat against Aston Villa with a minor issue, but his partial involvement in training is an encouraging development heading into the final fixture of the season. The Swedish striker's situation has been carefully managed throughout the campaign given the cumulative toll of missing pre-season and subsequently breaking his leg, and the club will assess how he responds before making a final call on his involvement against Brentford. Getting him some minutes before the season ends would also be beneficial heading into the World Cup with Sweden this summer.
