Senior Arsenal star Theo Walcott believes Alexander Isak it could be exactly the player Real Madrid needed in 2025.
Newcastle United paid a club record €70m to sign Isak from Royal Society back in August 2022 and the Sweden international has become a fan favorite on Tyneside.
21 Premier League goals in 2023/24 was the third highest in the English top flight as Newcastle finished the campaign in seventh place.
This form has continued into the 2024/25 campaign, with Newcastle not in European competition, and Isak has already scored four EPL goals.
Another goal of the weekend kept him on the agenda, and Walcott was impressed by his link in the game to the attack, and a sharp instinct in front of the goal.
Newcastle are expected to demand a fee in excess of £100m to consider a sale, but Walcott believes Isak could offer more balance than the current options in Real Madrid's hybrid attack.
“Look at the line of Real Madrid at the moment. They go for the Galacticos, and buy incredible talents, but sometimes they put them in positions where they can't do well,” according to reports from BBC Sport.
“I would say if you put Isak in that Real Madrid team, it molds them together in a different way, where you might think they look like a very balanced team.”
