Manchester United have reportedly secured a **verbal agreement** to sign Swedish striker **Alexander Isak** on a **five-year contract** (with an optional extra year). The deal is in its final stages, with paperwork signed and only official clearance remaining — including medicals and final registration.
The mood is electric at **Carrington**, as United move closer to signing one of Europe’s most exciting attacking talents. Isak’s pace, technique, and clinical finishing make him a perfect addition to United’s frontline, providing versatility as a central striker or wide forward.
**Key Highlights:**
* **Age:** 24
* **Clubs:** Bundesliga, La Liga, Premier League (Newcastle)
* **Strengths:** Ball control, speed, composure, and tactical flexibility
* **Role:** Likely to rotate or partner with Rasmus Højlund, depending on the system
* **Contract:** 5 years + 1 optional, awaiting final green light
This signing signals a major statement of intent by INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s leadership. It strengthens United’s attacking depth and may pave the way for exits, with players like **Sancho**, **Greenwood**, or **Antony** potentially making way.
Fans can expect an official announcement soon — with unveiling and preseason integration likely to follow.
