Chelsea makes first move to complete BLOCKBUSTER £115m SIGNING!

Chelsea have reportedly approached Newcastle over a blockbuster transfer for Alexander Isak, according to the Daily Express.

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.

Isak scored 10 goals in 27 games last season, firing his club to Champions League qualification and the Carabao Cup final, and has followed that up with 25 goals this campaign after managing to stay away from injury for the most part of the season.

The Blues have made no secret of their desire to land a top forward this summer, with Isak among the leading candidates to make the switch to Stamford Bridge with the reports claiming that Chelsea have now contacted Newcastle about a possible deal for the striker.

According to reporter Iomie Stanley – Chelsea should now go all out and bring Isak to the Bridge – he said: ‘Chelsea need to go all out for Alexander Isak now, they need someone like him because they came up short in the striker position. Chelsea will need to invest around £100m for Isak because that will be how much Newcastle will value him at, I can’t imagine it being any less.

‘Cole Palmer has been brilliant for Chelsea since his move to the club, while Nicolas Jackson had a solid enough season – but they need someone like Isak instead of him at the striker position. CHELSEA need a signing of that magnitude, like how Erling Haaland came to Man City and was scoring goals for fun, I think Isak can do the same.

‘Luckily for the Blues, it works because Isak already has two years of Premier League experience and will adapt to the way the club like to play having adjusted to life in the English game already.’
