Glen Johnson has been talking about Alexander Isak.
The former Chelsea player thinks the Newcastle United striker is a ‘fantastic player, for sure.’
Alexander Isak has started 57 Premier League matches for Newcastle United and scored 37 goals.
The media have been stirring things up as usual.
The former Chelsea player saying he can definitely understand why a ‘big club’ like Chelsea would be interested in Alexander Isak…
**Glen Johnson talking to Betfred about media claims of Alexander Isak being linked with a £115 million move to Arsenal or Chelsea:**
_“Alexander Isak is a fantastic player, for sure, but I’d want to see him do it more for that sort of money._
_“He’s capable of doing everything, he’s calm in front of goal and he scored a banger last week against Liverpool._
_“He’s also got a calm slotted finish in him as well, which is more impressive, but to be worth £115 million, you should produce more often and over a longer period of time._
_“I can definitely understand why the big clubs would be after Alexander Isak because when he’s on it, he looks great.”_
**Glen Johnson asked whether he still believes Chelsea need a new striker considering the form of Nicolas Jackson:**
_“I’d still say that they need one and would want one._
_“It’s easy to forget that you need one when your team’s playing well and winning._
_“Nicolas Jackson’s come good again, but he’s come good before and gone cold again, so if he can maintain this form, then the need for a new striker would be less._
_“I still think they need another striker there for when he goes cold again, to help him move up a gear. Nicolas just needs to perform more consistently.”_
