Arsenal links have named them as potential suitors for Real Sociedad’s Alexander Isak – and some of the club’s fans on Twitter are happy with the transfer speculation.

The Athletic claims that Mikel Arteta’s side are monitoring the 21-year-old attacker.

Apparently, the Gunners technical director Edu is a big fan of the Sweden international, who would be a possible priority target if they enter the market for a striker.

The report states that there is a release clause worth €70million (£60.2million) in the centre-forward’s contract with Spanish La Liga club Sociedad.

Isak, who will hope to lead Sweden to glory at this summer’s Euros, is a huge prospect.

He’s just enjoyed a great campaign in La Liga by scoring 17 league goals in 34 games. Additionally, he was given some exposure in the Europa League competition.

Isak a popular name with Arsenal fans

A selection of Arsenal supporters on social media love the Isak speculation.

Alexandre Lacazette was the Gunners top scorer this season with 17 goals. Meanwhile, Nicolas Pepe (16) and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (15) were just behind.

However, Isak looks like he would be a top addition at the Emirates Stadium because of his sky-high potential.

For 21, he already looks like a physical forward that can lead the line well with his pace and he’s a scorer of all types of goals.

Here are some Arsenal fans discussing Isak:
