Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak has been remarkably consistent, finding the back of the net 17 times. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest’s Chris Wood has been a revelation, playing a pivotal role in making Forest an unexpected title contender this season. Their contributions have been instrumental in their clubs’ impressive campaigns.
