Newcastle striker Alexander Isak has insisted he is concentrating on his current club despite rumours linking him to the likes of Arsenal.
Isak is in incredible form for the Magpies this season and has bagged 13 goals in 20 appearances so far this season. He was once again on the mark when Eddie Howe’s team cruised to a 2-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford on Monday evening.
As such, the Swede has earned himself admiration from clubs looking to add a top quality centre-forward to their teams.
Arsenal are one of the sides believed to be interested in a move for Isak. In the summer, Mikel Arteta’s recruitment team forged a plan to find their perfect striker and the attributes they were looking for – pace, strength, physical prowess – matched that of Isak.
There has been talk though that Newcastle are so keen to keep hold of the Swede that they have slapped a price tag of £150m on him. When discussing his value to Eddie Howe’s team and potentially leaving, Isak was keen to dismiss the speculation.
