Alexander Isak has been one of the stars of the Premier League season this term and has been linked with the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea but Newcastle have set a high price for the striker

Newcastle striker Alexander Isak scored his 15th goal of the season on Tuesday night in a 2-0 victory over Arsenal in the Carabao Cup

Arsenal’s hopes of signing Alexander Isak have been dealt a blow despite Newcastle seemingly needing to offload players this month. Isak enhanced his already growing reputation this week by scoring at the Emirates on Tuesday, as the Magpies secured a 2-0 first leg lead in their Carabao Cup semi-final.

Arsenal will be unable to facilitate a move for Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak this summer. The 25-year-old Sweden international has been touted with a potential move to the Emirates in 2025 should the Magpies fail to qualify for Europe.

Mikel Arteta says there is a possibility that Arsenal could be active in the transfer market this month, but only if it is to bring in a player who can make an immediate impact in the first team. The Gunners are trying to hunt down Liverpool at the top of the Premier League table,
