Chelsea told record-breaking signing will cost £200 million to sign this summer!

It has been claimed that it would take closer to £200 million for Chelsea to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle this summer window.

Speculation has mounted over a summer move for the Swedish forward due to Newcastle’s need to balance the books for Profit and Sustainability Rules reasons, with CHELSEA FC reportedly interested in a deal.

It was no secret that the Blues were keen on the man way before he made the move to Newcastle – and with new boss Enzo keen to add a new striker to that attack – Isak suits the style of the club.

Reports have claimed that Talks have already taken place between the two clubs and the Blues are ready to pay in excess of the £115 million they spent on Moises Caicedo last summer, which will break the Premier League transfer record again.

However, according to Scott Wilson of the Northern Echo, Newcastle are demanding a fee in excess of £200 million, and retain hope of tying the player

He Tweeted: #NUFC unconcerned by Chelsea approach for Alexander Isak, and confident striker will sign improved deal on Tyneside after positive initial talks. Newcastle don’t want to sell, so Chelsea are looking at north of £200m…

Isak was brilliant for the Toon last season and it is very easy to see why Chelsea are very keen to try and get a transfer deal done – but £200 million is crazy money that they should not pay.

He as shown no real desire to leave – so doesnt really want to be at Chelsea – did have his injury problems before last season and has not done anything at the very top of the game to be worth so much cash.

If CHELSEA offer that much – the Toon board will accept – it is that simple.
