Alexander Isak will leave Real Sociedad for the Premier League after Newcastle United signed him in a club-record deal.
Alexander Isak has been acquired by Newcastle United for a club-record cost of reportedly £60 million (€71.1 million) from Real Sociedad.
The 22-year-old, who has 37 Swedish caps, joins the Premier League team on a five-year agreement, after his three productive years with the LaLiga team.
Isak joined La Real after leaving Borussia Dortmund, scoring 33 goals in 105 league games, the last of which was a 4-2 loss to Barcelona on August 21.
"I'm thrilled that it's finished. It was a huge decision for me, but one that I am really pleased with "He stated on the club's website.
"It is a fantastic, historic club with incredible fans, and I think anyone would desire to play for them. They were a significant factor in my decision to come here, as was the club's project, which I firmly support.
"You should always enter a team knowing how they play. I find Newcastle's style of play to be incredibly appealing, and I want to be a part of that.
Isak joins Sven Botman, Matt Targett, and Nick Pope as Newcastle's fourth additions during the summer window.
They had been searching for a striker since the conclusion of the previous campaign and had previously been linked with both Isak and Dominic Calvert-Lewin of Everton.
However, Callum Wilson's hamstring issue and Eddie Howe's need for a forward might have accelerated the process.
In the opening rounds of the 2022–23 Premier League season, Newcastle is unbeaten, drawing with Manchester City and Brighton and Hove Albion after winning their first game against Nottingham Forest.
"The window is getting shorter and will soon close, therefore the emphasis is on the things within our control.
