Liverpool -target alexander Isak wants to leave Newcastle and an injury to Arsenal's Kai Havertz has given rise to speculation that they can also try to sign the Sweden star
Speculation that Arsenal could make a late attempt to beat Liverpool to a blockbuster transfer for Newcastle's Wilaway Striker, Alexander Isak, would have been rejected by the club.
The Gunners were previously associated with a movement for Isak, which is restless in St James' Park. The 26-year-old has been the subject of an offer from Liverpool more recent, in which both the player and the Premier League champions like to have the idea of ​​Isak that leads their new look attack.
However, Newcastle does not want to lose their star striker, and it is still to be seen whether all parties will reach a compromise before the transfer window closes on 1 September.
But although some expect that Liverpool will be successful in their pursuit of the Sweden International, the news of an injury to Kai Havertz had asked for suggestions earlier this week that Arsenal could join the largest transfersaga of the summer.
The independent sketch that such a conversation was on the same evening earlier this week among 'high officials' at the PFA Awards that Isak itself has issued an explosive statement on social media. However, the publication added that Arsenal gave a brief intention to such suggestions, and replied that there was “no chance” that a movement was made. Since then they have closed a deal with Crystal Palace to sign Ebereechi Eze.
The future of Isak will remain in the air when we approach the last days of the summer transfer window. In his statement, ISAK accused the club of 'Breaking Promisions' before he explained that the relationship between him and Newcastle “cannot continue”.

The striker missed the Premier League opener of Newcastle last weekend and will be absent again on Monday when the Magpies travel to Anfield to play Liverpool. Eddie Howe admitted that the constant distance between Isak and the club is a “loss-loss situation” during his press conference on Friday.
“It's a sad moment. These things that are made public do not reflect on us, or Alex. It has been an unfortunate few months that looks like it will end fairly quickly.”
He further admitted that he was uncertain how the Saga would conclude, adding to it: “I am not a fortune teller. I have no way to know what will happen in the coming days. But he is contracted, he is our player.”
