Alexander Isak opens up on being linked with English clubs amid Liverpool interest

According to The Independent (h/t Liverpoolecho), Liverpool target Alexander Isak has revealed his interest to play for a Premier League side in the future. 

Liverpool has one of the most consistent front three across Europe in recent times. Their dynamic and chemistry make them lethal machines when used together.

Jurgen Klopp has always preferred to play his usual front three together, even during a weak form of any of the three players. But looking at the long-term future, he would need to change some things at Anfield. 

All three players have either reached the 30-year mark or are closing in. In such a case, it becomes a question of how many years they can give their best for the Reds. 

A sudden transition can hurt the Merseyside team’s growth and performance on the team. Thus, finding some viable young alternatives has become a necessity for the Reds board.

Jurgen Klopp’s team has identified Alexander Isak to fill the shoes of some heavy performers. It is believed that the Reds board are preparing a €40m bid for the Real Sociedad striker. 

The 22-year-old has already made his mark in the Spanish premier division with successful goalscoring runs. In the last two seasons, he has scored 16 and 17 goals respectively for Real Sociedad. This season it’s no different as he has again proved his hunger for goals by scoring five goals in 12 appearances

Recently the Swedish player reacted to the interest from English teams. He stated that he is happy with his current team but isn’t ruling out a possibility for big English clubs. 

“I’m in a good place at the moment, I’m very happy, but one day it would be nice to play in England as well,”

He also agreed to the intensity and challenging environment of the Premier League.

“They have six or seven of the biggest clubs in the world, it’s a very high level, and of course, one day, it would be an alternative.”

He stated that he is currently fulfilling certain expectations, but he is not limiting himself and would be open in the future in choosing the right place to showcase his talent. 

“I have expectations for myself that I’m trying to fulfil, so we’ll see where the journey takes me in future.”

It’d be an excellent investment for the Reds board, seeing Isak’s goalscoring abilities. But only time could tell how he can perform in the demanding atmosphere of the Premier League.
