Gustav Isaksen, born on the 19th of April, 2001, hails from Denmark, and plies his trade as a forward, primarily as a right winger for Lazio. A physical presence on the pitch at 5ft 9in (1.77m) and 10st 5lb (66kg), Isaksen sports the number 18 on the back of his jersey. His footballing prowess extends beyond club level as he has also donned the jersey for the Denmark U21 national team.
Isaksen's market value is estimated at around £10 million, as stated by Transfermarkt. His contractual obligations to Lazio are to be honoured until the 30th of June, 2028, with just shy of four years left in his tenure with the Italian side.
In the current 2024-2025 season, Isaksen has appeared twice in Serie A for Lazio, finding the back of the net once, as a substitute. The previous season saw him competing in the Champions League, starting twice and appearing three times as a substitute. He also made a single substitute appearance in the Supercoppa.
Isaksen's career began in Denmark with FC Midtjylland where he made 14 first team appearances in his debut season of 2019-2020. The next season saw him participate in 22 matches, scoring his first goal. The 2021-2022 season was a breakout one for Isaksen, making 30 appearances and scoring 5 times. The 2022-2023 season was his most prolific, with 18 goals in 31 matches. The following season, however, he made just 2 first team appearances.
His journey then took him to Lazio in Italy where he played 28 times and scored 3 goals in the 2023-2024 season. The current season has seen him play twice, already scoring his first goal for the Italian side.
