Footage of Real Sociedad star Alexander Isak enjoying a break in London has piqued the attentions of the Arsenal fanbase on Saturday.
This of course comes with the Gunners hotly tipped to make a big-money move for hitman Isak over the days ahead, after seeing first-choice attacking target Dusan Vlahovic opt to take his talents to Serie A heavyweights Juventus.
The videos in question, linked below, showcase the Swede in the midst of a rare break from the Spanish fixture schedule, enjoying some well-earned rest in the English capital.
Isak can be seen both outside a club in the Soho district, and in a shopping centre alongside Sociedad teammate Adnan Januzaj.

Whilst Isak making his way to London is of course likely of little significance when it comes to a potential move to Arsenal, the Gunners fanbase could be forgiven for allowing their excitement to get the better of them, amid an underwhelming January transfer window to date.
Arthur back on the cards?
Turning attentions towards Arsenal’s efforts to secure much-needed reinforcements in the middle of the park before the transfer window slams shut on Monday evening, the north London outfit could yet be afforded fresh hope in their pursuit of Juventus’ Arthur by none other than the Bianconeri themselves.
This comes with the transfer team in Turin primed to follow up on the statement signing of the aforementioned Vlahovic with a further swoop for Borussia Monchengladbach standout Denis Zakaria.
As per a number of reliable sources, Juve are pushing hard for the soon-to-be out-of-contract Swiss international, whose arrival in Turin in advance of the deadline is beginning to look increasingly likely.
Meeting taking place now for Denis Zakaria-Juventus deal, confirmed as revealed today morning. Club confident to complete the agreement while Zakaria is keen on the move. ⚪️⚫️ #Juventus

Such a move, in turn, could well open the door for discussions between the Bianconeri hierarchy and their counterparts at Arsenal to be reignited, with Arthur and Zakaria, whilst boasting altogether contrasting profiles, likely to be forced to battle it out for one spot at the base of Massimiliano Allegri’s midfield.
