According to former Premier League striker Michael Owen, Newcastle United's Alexander Isak is a top-tier player who would easily fit into any team in the Premier League. Isak has been in top form this season, scoring an impressive 13 goals in 18 league games and helping Newcastle rise to fifth place in the standings. His performance has also caught the attention of several top clubs, including Arsenal.
The Gunners have been eyeing Isak for some time now, with manager Mikel Arteta looking to bring in a new striker to take the team to the next level. Despite not signing a new frontman last summer, Arsenal is reportedly very interested in making a move for Isak, who is valued at over £100m by Newcastle.
Former England striker Owen has praised Isak, calling him "seriously good" and believes he would be a valuable addition to any Premier League team. However, Owen suggests that Manchester City, with their prolific goalscorer Erling Haaland, might be the only team that wouldn't need Isak's services.
Commenting on Isak's potential move to Arsenal, club legend Paul Merson believes the Gunners should go all out and "break the bank" for the talented forward. Merson, who played for Arsenal and England, believes Isak is the best in the business and would elevate Arsenal's game to a whole new level.
Isak's impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, with fans and pundits alike calling for him to be signed by top clubs. However, Newcastle manager Eddie Howe is not worried about the speculation and believes it comes with the territory of having a top player in the team. Howe remains focused on the facts and is not letting the rumors distract him from his job.
Isak's potential move to Arsenal could also have a knock-on effect on the team, with players like Kai Havertz being pushed back to midfield. Merson believes this would create more opportunities for goals, with players like Isak and Havertz having a natural instinct to get in the box and score.
Despite the potential benefits of signing Isak, Arsenal fans might have to wait until next season to see the talented striker in their team. Meanwhile, Newcastle fans might have to say goodbye to one of their top players, with Isak being highly sought after by top clubs. But for now, all we can do is wait and see how the transfer saga unfolds.
