Alexander Isak has become one of the most coveted players in Real Sociedad at the moment. The Swede has been signing great seasons with the Basque team and also leaving positive feelings as the main offensive reference of his team, both in the Eurocup and in the Qualifiers for the Qatar World Cup 2022.
One of the main stakeholders in the attacker is the Arsenal, who is looking for a young center forward who fits into the club’s renewal plan (exits of experienced players and the incorporation of young players such as Ben White, Albert Sambi Lokonga, Nuno Tavares, Aaron Ramsdale and Martin Odegaard) and who can replace the possible casualties of Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, who do not want to continue in the club and are the two most important sales that the club can make to collect a good amount of money to continue adding talent.
The Gunners’ New Target
The commitment to the signing of Isak comes from the hand of Mikel Arteta, who sees him as a self-sufficient attacker to be able to make a difference in the most complicated moments of the matches. The Spanish coach would have asked the signing of the Swede for this summer market, but Real Sociedad was not willing to sell him at this time.
The only problem with his incorporation is that he has a contract until the summer of 2026, so he will have to make a large investment to convince the Basques to let one of their stars go. Its price is set at 60 million euros, which seems like a smart investment for the long term.
Isak is ready to take a leap forward and play for a bigger team, considering that he seems to have an ideal fit in the Premier League.
