Manchester City identify Real Sociedad's Alexander Isak as an alternative to Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland, accoridng to a report.

Manchester City have reportedly identified Real Sociedad's Alexander Isak as an alternative to Borussia Dortmund's Erling Braut Haaland.

The Citizens are believed to be in pole position to sign Haaland from BVB in the upcoming market, but a number of other clubs are still in the race to sign the Norway international.

According to Fichajes, Pep Guardiola's side have put together a list of potential alternatives to Haaland and view Isak as a possible acquisition this summer.

Isak's future remains the subject of much speculation, with Arsenal said to be one of a number of clubs keen to sign the Sweden international ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

The 22-year-old has scored eight times and registered three assists in 31 appearances for Real Sociedad this season, including three goals in six outings in the Europa League.

Isak, who still has more than four years left to run on his current deal, has netted 41 times and registered eight assists in 120 games for the White and Blues since arriving from Dortmund in 2019.
