Juventus are reportedly preparing to go head-to-head with Arsenal for the signature of Real Sociedad forward Alexander Isak during the January transfer window.

The 22-year-old has been in impressive form for his La Liga club during the 2021-22 campaign, scoring seven times and contributing two assists in 21 appearances in all competitions.

Isak signed a new long-term deal with Real Sociedad in July, but there remains widespread speculation surrounding his future, with a number of clubs said to be interested in his services.

Arsenal have been strongly linked with the Sweden international in recent weeks, but according to Tuttomercatoweb, there is also genuine interest from Juventus.

Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are both out of contract at the Emirates Stadium this summer, while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang does not appear to have a future at the club following a disciplinary breach.

Isak has scored 40 times and registered seven assists in 110 appearances for Real Sociedad since joining the Basque outfit from Borussia Dortmund in 2019. body check tags ::
