FC Barcelona could make Newcastle striker Alexander Isak their number one summer target. The Swede is now favored by management to the detriment of Erling Haaland, considered too expensive.
The Catalan club has had a good start to the season and Robert Lewandowski is performing very well at the forefront of the attack. However, the Polish striker passed his thirties a long time ago and could well leave the club this summer.
Barça with a Swedish accent
According to the daily The Sun, Barça is hesitating between Isak and Viktor Gyokeres for its offensive sector. The two Swedish strikers could well be in competition in their quest for a dream transfer to Barca.
The question now is whether Newcastle are prepared to sell Isak. Because he is considered a key player by coach Eddie Howe. And Toons don’t necessarily need to sell.
