Zinedine Zidane has now serious problems in the attacking line, with Morata just recovered from an injury and Karim Benzema with a really poor level in the last games. Los Blancos are always trying to spot good youngsters, like Mariano Díaz, and they’ve now put their eye in a Swedish youngster.

Alexander Isak is his name. He’s only 17 years old and he’s playing in the Swedish team AIK Solna. In his season debut, he has scored 10 goals in only 24 games and he has become one of the best players in the Swedish league. Despite his age, he has started in 19 games this season, so he’s gaining experience in an important club, who finished the league in the second position behind Malmö.

The situation reminds us the one lived by Odegaard. Another young player coming from the Northern countries, but Isak has much more experience than the winger. His good performances have risen the interest of important clubs of Europe such as Paris Saint Germain, Juventus, Chelsea or Real Madrid.

Actually, according to the Swedish newspaper Expressen, Real Madrid have already made an offer of €8.2M but the Northern club has rejected it. “There are a lot of rumours around Alexander Isak at this moment. We can say there is a lot of interest. However, we are not going to comment anything at this regard”, Bjorn Wesstrom, the Sports Director, said.

We have to remember that FIFA banned Real Madrid signing any player in the next two transfer windows. However, Los Blancos appealed the sanction and they still believe they could add some players to the good squad they have right now. Taking in consideration his age, it should be a player for the future and he might have to play with Castilla -Real Madrid second team- and gain more experience before joining Real Madrid first squad.
