Real Madrid Transfer News: Real Madrid, who won La Liga, is said to have asked Real Sociedad to keep them updated on what’s going on with Alexander Isak this summer
Real Madrid Transfer News: Mundo Deportivo, a Spanish sports newspaper, says that La Liga champions Real Madrid have asked Real Sociedad to let them know if a potential buyer contacts the Basque club for Alexander Isak during the summer transfer window. La Real thinks that the Swedish forward is worth about €90 million.
Alexander Isak’s time with Real Sociedad hasn’t been the most exciting. But he’s still one of the most promising young strikers in Europe.
Over the years, the 22-year-old has been compared to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. But he has not yet reached the heights that his talent suggests.
The Swedish international played for Real Sociedad 128 times. He scored 43 goals and set up eight others.
But Isak has still caught the eye of some of the biggest clubs in Europe, like Real Madrid, who are considering a move for the summer transfer window.
The current La Liga champions do not need to sign a new first-choice striker because Karim Benzema has been getting better and better in recent years.
Real Madrid doesn’t need an expensive center forward because the French player is the most important player on the team.
Will Los Blancos buy Isak?
But it’s important to remember that Benzema is well into his 30s. He is getting close to the end of his brilliant career. So, even though the veteran striker is a key player for Real Madrid, the Merengues need to make a plan for what will happen to him in the future. Isak might have been on their radar for this reason.
Recent reports, though, say that the 22-year-old will probably stay at Real Sociedad after the summer transfer window closes. His €90 million price tag makes it hard for teams who want to sign him to do so.
Real Madrid might not go after Isak this summer. But they have asked their fellow La Liga club to let them know if a potential buyer contacts the Basque club.
If someone makes an offer soon, Real Madrid might have to go on the attack to sign the Swede. Real Madrid will keep an eye on the young striker for now. It will be interesting to see if Isak leaves Real Sociedad this summer for €90 million.
