Manchester United reportedly look set to rival Arsenal for the transfer of Alexander Isak this summer.
The Red Devils could do with strengthening up front after a difficult season, and it appears the Real Sociedad striker is now one of their priorities as they concede defeat in the race to sign Erling Haaland, according to the Daily. Star.
Isak has impressed in his time in La Liga, and Sport have also linked him with Arsenal of late, so it could be that we see the highly rated young Sweden international in the Premier League before too long.
Isak’s form has sunk a bit this season, but it seems he is still highly regarded by top clubs, with the Daily Star linking him with Man Utd and claiming he could command a fee of up to £60m.
Arsenal are also in dire need of a top young striker to replace Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang in the long term, and Isak has the potential to be a good long-term option.
United and Arsenal are battling for a top four spot, so it could be whoever gets that Champions League spot has the upper hand in the race for Isak’s signature.
