The national team striker continues to deliver – and the speculation surrounding his future is unlikely to subside.
Arsenal are said to be considering making a huge bid for the Swede.
With his 17 goals in the 2016–2017 season, Zlatan Ibrahimovic was for a long time the only Swede to have scored the most goals in a season in the Premier League. Two weeks ago, Isak hit two goals against Tottenham and went level with Ibrahimovic.
Isak had the chance to slip past already last weekend, but then went off the field goalless in the 0–2 loss away to Crystal Palace.
Former Malmö FF player Anel Ahmedhodzic surprisingly gave bottom team Sheffield United the lead with a headed goal. It stood until the 27th minute at St James’ Park.
The goal was Isak’s 28th overall in the Premier League, two more than Sebastian Larsson achieved for Birmingham and Sunderland.
With his 48 goals in 241 games, Fredrik Ljungberg is the Swede who scored the most goals in the Premier League.
