Arne Slot has made his feelings clear about Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak amid ongoing transfer talk linking him with both Liverpool and Arsenal. The Magpies have made their stance clear; they do not wish to sell the Swedish striker, who is one of the most sought-after forwards in the world, after another impressive season in black and white.

Speaking at his pre-match press conference ahead of the Reds, clash with Newcastle, Slot was asked about the in-form Magpies’ striker. He said: “It’s an understatement to say he’s in fine form.
