Arsenal Face Uphill Battle for £120M-Rated Newcastle Star Amid Liverpool, PSG Interest

The winter transfer window has closed, and Alexander Isak is staying put at Newcastle United. Although there was never much buzz around a move this winter, it’s clear that clubs will be lining up for him come summer.

In the meantime, the Magpies are working on a contract extension to ensure Isak remains at St. James’ Park for the foreseeable future.

PSG manager Luis Enrique is reportedly eyeing Isak, according to Fichajes. The Swedish striker has impressed with his pace, technical ability, and clinical finishing, all of which align with the attacking style Enrique aims to implement at Paris.

Meanwhile, FootballTransfers has revealed that although Arsenal have shown interest in Isak, it’s Liverpool who are currently the most determined suitors and hold the upper hand in the race for his signature.

Are Arsenal out of the Alexander Isak transfer race?

The Daily Mail’s Sami Mokbel reports that Arsenal’s dream striker target remains Alexander Isak. However, with a price tag of around £120 million, a successful transfer seems unlikely.
