Real Madrid are very interested in the young Swedish talent Alexander Isak. They have followed his progression and according to Marca, next week he will sign with Los Blancos. Despite Real Madrid cannot sign until next year, Florentino Pérez continues searching players and he is very interested in the young Swedish striker. Teams as Chelsea, Manchester United, Juventus, Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also interested on him.
According to Marca, Isak will sign with Real Madrid next week with a contract for five seasons. However, the Swedish striker may not dress Real Madrid shirt until summer, since FIFA’s sanction prevents the club to sign new players in this winter transfer market.
The 17 year old Swedish striker is currently playing with the Swedish team AIK Solna and he already has debuted with his his national team. This week he has proclaimed the youngest player to score a goal with Sweden in the friendly match against Slovakia.
Many people compare Isak with Ibrahimovic because of their height and because both play in the same position. They have similar characteristics. He is powerful (1’90) and physically domineering but he also is a very technical player which leads to the comparisons with Manchester United’s current leading scorer. In fact, Isak has been named as the new “Ibrahimovic”. The young Swedish player visited last November Valdebebas and he also watched a match at Santiago Bernabéu in the game against Sporting Gijón.
Last season (in his first year as a profesional) he played around 1000 minutes with AIk Solna. Alexander Isak scored 10 goals in just 24 games being the team top scorer despite his youth. Now he has the chance to grow as player if he finally signs with Los Blancos. In his first year, Los Blancos want to form him as a player and they decided that the best idea is that in the first season he will play with Real Madrid Castilla.
