It is the number 9 most in sight in recent weeks, and has stacked the Premier League goals since the start of the season with Newcastle. The Swedish striker Alexander Isak is the nugget that everyone tears away, but could have had a very different career trajectory. In 2020, the management of the club articulated around Eric Abidal and Ramon Planes had checked the name of the scorer, then evolving on the side of the Real Sociedad.
Surface negotiations that had never resulted in something concrete, Isak was in difficulty facing the goal in the Basque system. Finally, the Swedish rallied Newcastle the following summer, and has registered for 54 goals in three seasons with the Magpies, enough to wake up the attractions of the Catalans for the player. With the advanced age of Robert Lewandowski and the lack of confidence in Ferran Torres, old files could be dusted on the side of Barcelona.
