Arsenal hold an interest in Crystal Palace playmaker Eberechi Eze, who would help solve that issue of having more creativity from the left. The 27-year-old is also capable of producing the “magic moments” that Arteta has claimed his team lacks. For several reasons, Isak joining Liverpool would ramp up the pressure on Arsenal to sign Eze.

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta would reportedly love to sign Newcastle star Alexander Isak, but the Gunners hierarchy are unlikely to sanction a deal. The striker bagged 23 Premier League goals last season, with only Liverpool star Mohamed Salah finding the back of the net on more occasions in the top flight.

If any club has the funds to pull off this deal, it is Al Hilal. Not only are they one of the four clubs owned by Saudi Arabia’s Private Investment Fund (PIF), but they also benefit from the support of billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, who can help underwrite exceptional deals such as this one.

Newcastle are linked with three Premier League strikers and a Manchester United target as they consider the prospect of life after Alexander Isak.
