Barça does not rule out the signing of Alexander Isak in this winter market. The Swede is the top candidate for the board to strengthen the attack
That FC Barcelona has begun the search for a replacement for Robert Lewandowski in the center of the attack is an open secret. The blue and claret entity has set the machinery in motion to secure the '9' of the team's future, and although figures like Erling Haaland or Viktor Gyökeres seemed to be the favorites of the sports management, a new 'star' would be the top candidate to reinforce the culé attack.
This is Alexander Isak, a Swedish scorer who has established himself as one of the sensations of the Premier League. The 25-year-old player has scored 13 goals and provided 4 assists in 18 matches played in the English league, but speculation about his future has skyrocketed since Newcastle is not playing in the Champions League this year and their participation next season is not guaranteed, so the player would be looking to make the leap to a top-tier team.
Isak is preferred over Gyökeres in Barcelona
In this scenario, Barça appears, where, according to 'Mundo Deportivo', they are completely in love with Isak. In fact, he is preferred over his compatriot Gyökeres, as the sports management values his goal-scoring ability, his technique, and his versatility, being a threat inside the area but also moving comfortably outside of it to combine.
In fact, if the conditions are right, the Catalans would be willing to attempt to sign him during this winter market. Once back to the 1:1 rule and having resolved the registrations of Dani Olmo and Pau Víctor, the blaugranas are considering the option of incorporating a luxury reinforcement this January and the Nordic player would be the dream signing of the institution.
However, to carry out this operation, they must first generate good 'fair play' with some departures, with Ronald Araujo, Ansu Fati, Óscar Mingueza, Francisco Trincao, and Clément Lenglet being the names marked in red in the offices of Spotify Camp Nou. If these moves go well, Joan Laporta has opened the door to a high-caliber signing and Isak would be the main protagonist.
