Justin Setterfield/Getty Images Liverpool striker Alexander Isak is not ruling out starting for Sweden in their friendly against Greece on Thursday after playing and scoring against Norway. Isak is fit now though and is in the process of building up to the World Cup as part of Graham Potter’s Sweden squad.
Potter brought Isak on off the bench in Monday’s friendly with Norway and he scored Sweden’s only goal as they lost 3-1 in Oslo. Next up is a friendly against Greece and Isak admits that could be a game he could well start in, depending upon how he feels, while backing the decision of Potter not to start him vs the Norwegians.

If I feel fresh and then I could definitely consider starting.” Liverpool will be watching how Sweden handle Isak very carefully given their huge investment in the striker.
