Alexander Isak’s sensational form for Newcastle United has captivated top European clubs, triggering a transfer battle that could reshape football’s transfer market.
Newcastle United’s 25‐year‐old striker dazzles fans with his outstanding performance this season. He has netted 23 goals in 33 appearances, while last season he scored 25 times in 40 games.
Isak made a mark in the Carabao Cup final by scoring in Newcastle’s 2–1 win over Liverpool on 16 March. His strike lit up the match and spurred fierce transfer chatter.
Barcelona scrutinized his play during their 1–0 victory over West Ham earlier this month. Top clubs now circle the Swedish forward, drawn by his explosive attacking prowess.
A financial insider at fotnet24.net argues that Barcelona struggles with finances, making a high-priced deal for the forward unlikely despite their history of audacious moves.
Newcastle plans to secure Isak’s future with a record-breaking contract as his current deal runs until 2028. The club, which acquired him for a club-record £63million from Real Sociedad in 2022, remains determined to keep their star.
The Magpies aim to command a fee between £125million and £150million for Isak this summer. His season totals include 33 appearances (32 starts), 2613 minutes played, 23 goals, 5 assists, and 1 yellow card.
In a related twist, Liverpool eyes 24-year-old Marc Guehi, who faces an expiring contract with Crystal Palace in June. This summer may mark his final chance to secure his long-term future.
