Arsenal are preparing for move for Newcastle star Alexander Isak alongside another midfielder in the summer transfer window
Alexander Isak could finally join Arsenal this summer?
Arsenal have received news for a potential transfer for Alexander Isak to solve their striker issues this summer. The Gunners are currently out of attacking options. And that has seen them fall 12 points behind Premier League leaders Liverpool.
Mikel Arteta’s squad are missing Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz due to long-term injuries. Both players are out until at least January. They have are playing midfielder Mikel Merino as a striker for now. He has scored twice in his new role against Leicester City last month. But only has scored on two more times since that game.
The 25-years-old forward is a top target for the Gunners. He has been a key performer for Eddie Howe’s side.
The Sweden international scored in Newcastle’s Carabao Cup win over Liverpool on Sunday. He showed that he does perform on the biggest stages.
Journalist Fabrizio Romano has come up with new updates on the Magpies player. That his club do not have any short-term plans to let him go. While they also think that could change.
“There are no changes. Newcastle insist on keeping Isak as they see him as a key player for the project,” as per GiveMeSport.
Bruno Guimaraes at the Emirates Stadium?
Arsenal are planning to sign yet another left-back with Kieran Tierney. Tierney is due to leave this summer when his contract ends. Also, Oleksandr Zinchenko could leave at the end of the season.
A new goalkeeper is also on the list for them. That could bring back Arteta’s interest in Espanyol’s Joan Garcia.
The Gunners are keen on signing Bruno Guimaraes as well as per reports. The Spanish website, Fichajes, reports that they are ready to offer around £70 million for him.
