Arsenal will be on the lookout for a striker in the coming windows. It is well documented that the Gunners were keen on another forward last summer and that a move was in the works early in the market.
Benjamin Sesko was a candidate and seen as a market opportunity ahead of the European Championships but any move failed to materialise as the timing of the switch simply didn’t align.
One player whom many Arsenal supporters are very keen on is Alexander Isak. The Newcastle striker has been a big success since his arrival from Real Sociedad and been a part of the Magpies’ establishment as a Europe-chasing club again.
Scoring 20 goals last season was a brilliant accomplishment and most would rank the striker second in the league only to Erling Haaland. Although Kai Havertz’s form might have a claim in that field also.
Isak has alerted clubs such as Arsenal over a potential future move as contract talks have stalled. It has been well-documented that Newcastle want to tie the Swede down to an improved and more secure deal, but there are yet to be any breakthroughs on this front.
The current deal is in place until at least 2028, so there is little worry over the player’s value being affected by a diminishing contract. However, there is perhaps concern that the longer he goes without a renewal is something of a flag to suitors that a move might indeed be an option.
