Transfer Talk:Arsenal have Isak on their summer wishlist

Arsenal are lining up a move for Newcastle United forward Alexander Isak in the summer, reports the Independent.

It is reported that Gunners manager Mikel Arteta sees the 24-year-old Sweden international as the final piece of the puzzle to "complete" his team, following Isak's recent impressive form that saw him score his 19th Premier League goal of the campaign in last week's 5-1 win over Sheffield United.

A deal won't be easy, though, with the Magpies said to be "strongly resistant" to moving him on, and the St. James' Park hierarchy are also considering offering him a new contract.

Manager Eddie Howe's side are expected to be required to move players on before making new signings when the transfer market opens as they look to remain aligned with profit and sustainability rules (PSR), but whether Isak leaves Tyneside could depend on whether he attempts to force a move away.

Isak joined the club from Real Sociedad in 2022 for a club-record fee worth £63 million.
