Alexander Isak is not only a great player.
He is also a real role model.
The entire football world is now celebrating the images of the attacking star’s fine gesture.
Alexander Isak is one of the soccer world’s hottest strikers right now. He has been a smash hit in the Premier League since moving to Newcastle last year, and this season has started just like the last. After four games played, Isak is listed on two goals, and later in the autumn Champions League games await for the first time in Isak’s career.
Nice gesture to the young supporters
Isak is also a big star at home in Sweden, where he is currently in the middle of the European Championship qualifiers with Sweden. This weekend he scored one of the goals in the 5-0 win for Sweden against Estonia, and if Sweden is to take another three points in the key match against Austria on Tuesday, it is absolutely key that Isak plays well.
But before the match, Alexander Isak also managed to brighten the days of two younger supporters, with an absolutely fantastic gesture. According to the national football team themselves, at Monday’s training they had a visit from Min Stora Dag, the foundation that fulfills wishes for children with serious illnesses and diagnoses. There were two young supporters, and when Alexander Isak appears to say hello, both immediately light up.

Isak is highly praised
Alexander Isak introduces himself with hugs, and when he finds out that one of the children will deliver the match ball on Tuesday evening, Isak helps with the nervousness.
– It will be fun! We will be there too, so it will go as well as possible, says Alexander Isak in the clip, which has been widely circulated on social media.
Alexander Isak then went to the changing room and picked up one football boot each, which he gave to the children. He also signed them, and also took pictures with them both. At the same time, more players signed up from the national team, and all signed autographs on a match shirt that was handed out. On social media, tributes are pouring in for the star for the magical gesture.
“So amazingly nice,” writes one person.
“Nice!”, writes another.
“Humility, respect and love. Isak has a big heart!”, writes a third.
“This is what I call love. Respect to all,” writes a fourth.
