Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>Real Sociedad striker Alexander Isak has stressed that his focus remains solely on his current employers, but refused to rule out a summer transfer to Arsenal.<\/p>\n

The Gunners were chasing Dusan Vlahovic for the majority of the window but were repeatedly knocked back by the Serb, who instead opted to join Juventus from Fiorentina.<\/p>\n

The focus was then on 22-year-old Isak, who teased fans with a holiday to London towards the end of the transfer window, but a move was never close to materialising as Sociedad refused to negotiate and demanded his \u00a376m release clause be met.<\/p>\n

Arsenal are expected to reignite their interest in the summer, when they will likely be left with no senior strikers. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang departed for Barcelona on deadline day and both Alexandre Lacazette and Eddie Nketiah are likely to leave on free transfers.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, Isak stressed to Mundo Deportivo that he will be 100% focused on his job with Sociedad.<\/p>\n

“You can never be sure of anything,” Isak said when asked about a potential departure. “I always say that you never know what can happen in football, but at the end of the day, I’m here. I’m happy. That’s it.<\/p>\n

“I am at a good club, with ambitions. I live very well here, I am happy in the city and it’s good for me to continue here, so for me, there is no problem.<\/p>\n

“I am not talking about other clubs, I am a Real player, I work here and this is my club. My work is on the pitch, there are other people who work on the things behind the scenes.”<\/p>\n

Arsenal are expected to pursue more than one striker in the summer. 90min understands that Lacazette is unlikely to be offered a contract extension, while Nketiah has snubbed multiple offers and plans to walk away.<\/p>\n

With nobody coming in to replace Aubameyang, Arsenal would be left with just 20-year-old Folarin Balogun, who is out on loan with Middlesbrough, as their only recognised striker.<\/p>\n
