00:01Alexander Isaac is steadily progressing in his recovery from the broken leg he suffered
00:06against Tottenham Hotspur last December. With Arne Schlott optimistic the striker could return
00:11to the squad by the end of March. The Liverpool record signing has been absent for over two
00:18months and his rehabilitation has been carefully managed to ensure a full recovery. Schlott
00:23revealed that Isaac has returned to the pitch this week, not yet in football boots but in
00:29running shoes marking an opportunity for his recovery. It's nice for him to go on the pitch,
00:34it's nice for us to see him here, Schlott said, adding that the final stages of rehab remain
00:39challenging. There is still a lot of work to be done as long as you're in the gym and not
00:44on the
00:44pitch, that's the nicest part. The Swedish forward's next step will be involving ball work, a key stage
00:51that players enjoy most before rejoining full group sessions. Schlott emphasised that even after
00:57reintegration it will take additional time before Isaac is match fit. The coach praised both the
01:02player and the club's medical staff for the progress made so far. Liverpool will be hoping
01:08Isaac's return comes at a crucial moment in the season with the forwards pace, finishing and
01:13creativity a potential boost for the team's top four ambitions. With his rehabilitation on track,
01:20fans can look forward to seeing Isaac back on the pitch later next month, ready to make an impact in
01:26the
01:26Premier League's final stretch.
