Arsenal get firm transfer message after making moves to sign 24-goal striker
Newcastle United have sent a firm message to Arsenal about trying to sign Alexander Isak 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 ARSENAL reportedly interested in a deal.
It was no secret that the Gunners were keen on the man way before he made the move to Newcastle – and with boss Mikel Arteta keen to add a new striker to that attack – Isak suits the style of the club.
But According to the London evening Standard – When Arsenal approached Newcastle about trying to sign the Swedish star – they were met with a firm no from the Toon – they will not be selling the big man
The reports come after Jermaine Pennant recently urged Mikel Arteta to try and sign Isak this summer: “Alexander Isak would be a perfect signing for Arsenal or Liverpool,” he told Coin Poker.
“He’s got that stature of a big 9, which is great to have. He can finish, which we’ve seen at Newcastle.
“I think he would be an amazing signing and would take Liverpool or Arsenal to the next step by winning the Premier League.”

Isak was brilliant for the Toon last season and it is very easy to see why Arsenal are very keen to try and get a transfer deal done – but £115 million is crazy money that they should not pay.
He as shown no real desire to leave – so doesnt really want to be at Arsenal – 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.
ARSENAL will surely sign a striker this summer – but it may not be Isak.
