A. Isak

Isak's 2026/27 season, read from the numbers

In 2026/27, A. Isak was used in rotation for Liverpool in the Premier League: 5 appearances and 415 minutes, averaging 83 minutes per outing. He grades out best for goals — 4, 220th of 702 attackers and inside the top 31%.

Per 90 minutes that is 0.9 goals per 90, 2.8 shots per 90 and 54% of his shots on target — the rate profile behind Isak's totals. The profile is lopsided rather than complete: measured against attackers, Isak sits in the top 31% for goalscoring but only the top 69% for chance creation.

Set against Isak's own record, 2026/27 reads differently: he has managed 23 in a season before, so 7 is well short of his own mark; he is playing far less than he once did — 1046 minutes against 2769 at his peak; his average match rating has risen from 6.51 to 7.20 since 2025/26. Our records cover 10 seasons of Isak's career, 2016/17 to 2026/27, across 5 clubs — AIK Stockholm, Borussia Dortmund, Real Sociedad, Newcastle and others. In that time he has played 313 matches across 12 competitions, 19,702 minutes in all.

His best return on our records was 27 goals in 2024/25, from 42 appearances. He is 7 appearances into the current one. Isak has 34 appearances in UEFA Europa League and UEFA Champions League on our records, and the gap is real: he is roughly 3.1 times more productive domestically, 0.61 per 90 domestically against 0.20 in Europe.

Isak has reached 15 goals in a season 4 times, between 2019/20 and 2024/25 — a level held rather than found once. Away from his club, Isak has 38 appearances for Sweden on our records, scoring 10 — across World Cup - Qualification Europe, Euro Championship and UEFA Nations League.

Treat these rates carefully. At 415 minutes — roughly 5 full matches — Isak is 485 short of our 900-minute qualifying floor, so he does not appear on the ranking boards: on a sample this size two good afternoons move a per-90 number further than a month of steady form.

How these scores are built, and the minutes and rating floors a player must clear to appear on our boards, are set out in our methodology.
