Eritrean Alexander Isaac: Inter Milan Chases ‘New Star’ in Sweden

By Calciomercato

Forget the 35-year-old Zlatan moving to Manchester United. Inter Milan director of sport Piero Ausilio has been chasing the new one for months: Alexander Isak, a 16-year-old Swedish national of Eritrean origin.

Almost 6 ft 4, the youngster has already netted three goals in ten Swedish league games with AIJ Solna, and is considered to be the successor of Zlatan himself.

Isak is known for his dribbling skills, despite his size, and for his instincts in front of goal, and has already scored six times in 19 games with Sweden's Under 17 side.

Leicester City are also fascinated by Isak, who has shined in the Under-17 European qualification against the likes of Wales, Portugal and Croatia. He's worth €5 million, and his deal with AIK Solna runs until 2018.
