According to news from SPORT, Barcelona has joined the race to sign Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak.

According to reports, Barcelona have shown interest in Isak as a possible replacement for Robert Lewandowski. At the age of 35, the Polish national team captain is entering the twilight of his career. Although Barcelona has invested in Vitor Roque, they still need a high-class striker.

Will Isak return to La Liga?

Erling Haaland is considered the dream target of president Joan Laporta, but Barcelona’s financial situation makes signing the Man City superstar impossible at this time or in 2025. Isak, who was on the Catalan side’s radar during his time at Real Sociedad, is now a target for the club once again. This is also the nаme that Arsenal craves.

According to Sport, it will not be easy for Barca in this deal, because any move to sign Isak from Newcastle United could cost about 100 million euros. The 24-year-old Swedish player has a long-term contract until 2028. Furthermore, he has shown great form this season with the Magpies, scoring 21 goals in 34 matches in all competitions.
