“Aleander Isak is a dark-house this season” — Alan Shearer
Aside the debate of who the potential winners of the premier league would be, the golden boot is another topic pundits ponder about and for Alan Shearer, Alexander Isak is one of the dark-horses for the golden shoe.
The Premier League’s Golden Boot race has been dominated by familiar names like Erling Haaland, Mohamed Salah, and Harry Kane in recent years. But according to the league’s all-time top scorer, Alan Shearer, a surprising new contender could emerge this season—Newcastle’s Alexander Isak.
Shearer, who knows a thing or two about goal-scoring with his 260 Premier League goals, believes Isak is the “great outside bet” to challenge Haaland’s supremacy. After an impressive 21-goal campaign last season, the Swedish striker is poised to take his game to the next level at St. James’ Park.

While Haaland remains the favorite after another dominant season with Manchester City, Shearer’s prediction puts Isak among an intriguing mix of potential challengers, including Marcus Rashford, who could have a resurgent season if he finds his rhythm early.
With new signings and tactical tweaks, Newcastle might just provide the perfect platform for Isak to make a Golden Boot run. Could the Magpies’ frontman be the one to disrupt Haaland’s reign? If Shearer’s instincts are right, the Premier League’s goal-scoring crown could be up for grabs.
