Alexander Isak

Breaking News from Eri-International sports as a new turn of events takes place in the game of soccer at the international level. As most of you know last week we witnessed 16 year old Eritrean-Swede Alexander Isak score two goals in just 4 games of the the Allsvenskan with AIK Stockholm side. As if losing Henok Goitom another great Eritrean-Swede was not enough, AIK may soon lose Isak who is being wooed by the English Premier League leading team Leicester City who should be rapping up their title very soon.

This is great news and could be very historical as Alexander may be in the top 10 of the youngest ever soccer players to make it to the EPL. If Leicester City decides to sign him, he may be the first player to be signed by a championship team following their winning season.

According to a top newspaper source from England, "Isak impressed Leicester scouts in Sweden's recent UEFA Under 17 Championship qualifiers against Wales, Portugal and Croatia.The Premier League leaders then watched him again as AIK played Norrkoping and Elfsborg."

It was also known that Southampton FC scouts were at one of the games when Alexander scored. Southampton currently stands at #8 in the league which is still a pretty good move for this young man who has taken Sweden by storm. While this may be great news for Alexander, it will be a battle to have him play for Eritrea as the Swedish national team will have a grip on him, unlike Henok Goitom who could have helped them in their quest to be one of the top teams in Europe.

This is a huge break for the young Eritrean-Swede who has shown that he can play with the best of them. He will be closely followed by the already crazy soccer fanatics of the world which includes Eritreans at home and in the diaspora.

We will keep you updated on this new development. Once the Leicester City vs Manchester United game is over this weekend, decisions may be made as the team can start signing players for next season.

Good luck and what a splendid news coming out of Europe for a young Eritrean star.
