Long-standing CHELSEA fc transfer target Alexander Isak has addressed the rumours that he could leave Newcastle United in the coming windows amid all the cpeculation surrounding his current contract position.

Isak has been talked about as a player that will make that next step in his career and move to the likes of Chelsea or Arsenal, who have been linked with a transfer move for the big man for the past 6 months, but are put off by his £100 million asking price.

However – speculation over a possible move away from Newcastle has gathered pace over the past few weeks, as rumours have emerged which have suggested that there have been some issues in agreeing a new contract at Newcastle.

Now, amid all that rumours, Isak has opened up and addressed all the speculation – on the transfer rumours, he told Fotbol Skanalen: “Throughout my career, I have never talked about or really commented on the move rumours during the season. There have been many such years where it has been talked about. It doesn’t affect me.

“I am commenting on my situation in Newcastle, and I have never had any problem there. I am fully focused on my task there and that we will have a fantastic season. There are still great opportunities for that. I have no thoughts about anything else.”

When asked about his representatives allegedly being frustrated with Newcastle, he added: “The only thing I can say is that a lot of information and rumours often come out. Much of what I read is not true. So that’s about all I can say about the whole thing.”

Look, Newcastle must know that the right offer will tempt Isak into leaving the club, he wants Champions League football, he wants to challenge for trophies, he wants to be at the very top of the game.

Newcastle was always going to be a stepping stone for the man, so if he does not agree a new contract, the Toon board needs to make sure they can get the most money out of the likes of CHELSEA and Arsenal
