The 21-year-old enjoyed an eye catching 2020/21 season with La Real, netting 17 league goals, as the Basque giants sealed a Europa League spot.
He has six goals in 22 appearances for the Swedish national side following his debut in 2017 and his strike partner Marcus Berg scored their early opener in the 1-1 draw with Spain back in 2019.
