Future Watch: Alexander Isak Soccer Cards, Swedish National Team – As La Liga really gets going, one young player to watch is Real Sociedad attacker Alexander Isak. The Swedish international just turned 21 a few days ago and already impresses with his abilities.

Isak, previously with Borussia Dortmund, transferred to Spain and Real in the summer of 2019. Last season he tallied 9 goals and 1 assist in helping Real Sociedad to a 6th place league finish, good for a spot in the Europa League for this season.

The tall Swede has plenty of skill in the attack. He runs very well for standing at about 6’3”. Isak has quickness and a burst in the open field. I like his awareness and calm on the ball in the area. He has a nose for goal and does not hurry inside the box, but plays at a very good speed. He is quick to pounce on available balls in front of goal. Isak can pick out corners with his strong and accurate right footed efforts. He can rise to the big occasion as well.

Isak helped his club reach the Copa Del Rey finals last season (the final has yet to be played due to delays related to COVID-19). He scored two goals in a thrilling 4-3 quarterfinal win over giants Real Madrid. Isak has seven goals total in the competition.

For Sweden, Isak has 13 caps and has tallied four times. He had a double against Faroe Islands in 2019 in a victory in 2020 Euro Championship qualifying.

Check out Isak’s highlights:

Isak made his trading card debut back in 2018 with Futera, and more recently he was on the checklist for 2019-20 Panini Chronicles Soccer. Don’t expect these to be his only cardboard collectibles though!
