Isak wanted by Gunners boss Arteta

Mikel Arteta eyeing striker from Premier League club

03 May 2024 - 20:42

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta is keen on landing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak this summer, according to The Independent.

  • Chelsea star wins PFA Young Player of the Year award
  • Chelsea midfielder won't join Premier League rivals

  • The Gunners have had a fantastic league campaign and they are currently top of the standings with 80 points from 35 games played.

    Despite this, they could fall short in the title race. Manchester City are just one point behind them and have a game in hand against Spurs.

    Regardless of how the season ends, Arteta is said to be eyeing a marquee marksman and prefers someone with Premier League experience.

    Isak has been identified as the top target for the Spanish tactician and it won't be easy to prise him away from the Magpies during the summer.

    The Tyneside outfit need to balance their books amid their PSR issues, but they are determined to keep hold of their prized asset next term.

    The Swede has had a couple of injury setbacks this campaign, but he has still impressed with 23 goals from 36 games for the Magpies.
