Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta saw his side slip up again in the title race and the pressure is growing on the club hierarchy to sign a new attacking player in the transfer window

Isak has certainly filled his boots since completing a club-record move from Real Sociedad in 2022. Remarkably, Isak has bagged 52 goals in just 90 games and the Sweden star became the first Newcastle player ever to score in eight successive Premier League matches earlier this week.

Arsenal have suffered a major blow in their pursuit of Alexander Isak, with Newcastle United reportedly increasing their asking price amid his immense recent form. The Sweden international has been on Arsenal’s radar for several years and his situation at St James’ Park is being monitored by the Gunners’ hierarchy as they look to sign a new centre forward.
