Alexander Isak, a striker for Newcastle United, has been a target for Arsenal. This is because Mikel Arteta is looking for the last piece in the plan that will help Arsenal win their first Premier League title since 2004.
It is said that Newcastle United is almost done with a deal to sign English player Marc Guehi. This could help Arsenal sign Alexander Isak.
This summer, Guehi was one of the most sought-after defenders in the Premier League. His play for Crystal Palace earned him a spot in Gareth Southgate’s England team for Euro 2024. The center back played in all but one of England’s games as they made it to the final and lost 2-1 to Spain.
The Telegraph now says that Guehi is almost ready to join Newcastle for a fee that is higher than £60 million. People say that talks have gone well and that a move will likely be made official by the weekend.
Giroud’s move to Newcastle could have big effects on Isak, who is said to be the only striker Mikel Arteta wants the Gunners to sign. It is important for Newcastle and all other English Premier League clubs to follow the Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR).
As things stand, teams can’t lose more than £105 million over three years. Newcastle paid close attention to the league’s money rules earlier this summer, when they had to sell a number of young stars before the June 30 PSR deadline.
That’s why the Magpies may have to think about an offer for their star striker Isak now that they’ve spent so much money on Guehi. Another player linked with a move away from St. James’ Park is Anthony Gordon. This may worry Arteta, since Isak’s possible move to Liverpool would end all rumors of him moving this summer.
Isak said earlier this summer that he had “no thoughts” about leaving Tyneside when asked about his plans for the future. He told the Swedish newspaper Fotballskanalen, “I’m having a great time at Newcastle and it was the best season of my career.”
“I love the city, the fans, and the club.” There is no way I am going to guess about my future, and I have no plans to leave. There has been no talk about it at the club, and I haven’t been told that they would have to sell me.
That was also made clear by Eddie Howe, Newcastle’s manager, in April: the club has no plans to sell their top scorer from last season. The Swede also cost the club a record £63 million to sign.
“He’s an outstanding talent and no one connected with Newcastle would want to lose him,” he told me.
