Keys said,<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI heard today that Liverpool have made a bid of \u00a3110m\u2026a second offer of \u00a380m now and \u00a360m next season. But I\u2019ve also heard that Real Madrid might be in the frame.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Isak\u2019s Excellent Form In English Football Last Season<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Isak had a productive campaign at the Tyneside club after he produced a handful of match-winning displays for them in the final third. The Swedish forward found the back of the net 27 times and earned six assists in 42 matches for Newcastle last season in multiple competitions.<\/p>\n<p>The 25-year-old led the line well for the Magpies as he averaged 3.10 shots per 90 minutes in the <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/english-premier-league\/\">Premier League<\/a>. He kept 43.2% of his attempts on target. Isak was even accurate when distributing possession in the opponent\u2019s half, based on his pass success rate of 75.3% in the English top tier (stats via <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/8e92be30\/Alexander-Isak\">fbref.com<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>His current contract at St. James\u2019 Park will run out in the summer of 2028. Therefore, Real Madrid would have to make a convincing offer if they want to stand a chance of recruiting Isak in this transfer window.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_329564\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-329564\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-lazyloaded=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Real Madrid\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" srcset=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-2048x1366.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1392x928.jpg 1392w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2216974821-1260x840.jpg 1260w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-329564\">NEWCASTLE UPON TYNE, ENGLAND \u2013 MAY 25: Alexander Isak of Newcastle United warms up prior to the Premier League match between Newcastle United FC and Everton FC at St James\u2019 Park on May 25, 2025 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. (Photo by George Wood\/Getty Images)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Should Real Madrid Boss Xabi Alonso Get Isak On Board?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Isak is a decent dribbler with the ball and has proven himself to be a lethal finisher in front of the opponent\u2019s goal. He can create the odd chance for his teammates to score and can use his strong 1.92m to win his fair share of aerial duels for his team.<\/p>\n<p>The Swedish sensation is currently playing the best football of his career. Hence, Isak would be a brilliant addition to <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/la-liga\/real-madrid\/\">Real Madrid<\/a>\u2018s squad this summer. However, only time will tell whether he can make a smooth transition to life in <a href=\"https:\/\/the4thofficial.net\/category\/leagues\/la-liga\/\">La Liga<\/a> if Los Blancos decide to snap him up in this transfer window.<\/p>\n<p>We can expect Isak to bring more firepower to Real Madrid boss Xabi Alonso\u2019s frontline. He is more than capable of earning a regular first-team spot at the Madrid club this season.<\/p>\n<p>At 25, Isak has his best years ahead of him, which makes him a decent option for Los Blancos to pursue this summer. Hence, Alonso should consider getting him on board soon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a recent segment with beIN SPORTS, football presenter Richard Keys revealed that Real Madrid are in the mix to sign Newcastle United centre-forward Alexander Isak.
