Swedish striker Alexander Isak has completed his move to German big guns Borussia Dortmund, the club have confirmed, via Twitter.

The 17-year-old has been causing quite the stir this season and has also reportedly been in the sights of Premier League giants Manchester United and Chelsea, as well as Champions League winners, Real Madrid.

However, according to reports, the striker, who has been dubbed the next Zlatan Ibrahimovic, snubbed a move to join his compatriot at Old Trafford and has completed the move for a reported fee of €10m.

The Sweden international, who became the country’s youngest ever goalscorer when he found the net in his first full cap, a 6-0 win over Slovakia.

The AIK forward, who has bagged 13 goals in 29 appearances for the first team, was apparently discouraged from joining Spanish giants, Real Madrid, due to the struggle faced by Norway international Martin Odegaard, who made the move to the Santiago Bernabeu as a 16-year-old, but has featured in the first team just once.
