Newcastle United Resists Offers for Star Striker Alexander Isak

Newcastle United chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan has made it clear that the club will not entertain any offers for star striker Alexander Isak amid interest from Liverpool and Arsenal. Isak has been instrumental for Newcastle, scoring 23 goals this season, including a crucial goal in their recent Carabao Cup victory over Liverpool. Newcastle is eager to secure Isak's future by potentially making him the highest-paid player in the club's history, with contract discussions expected to take place at the end of the season. However, Isak is reportedly considering his options based on Newcastle's final standings in the Premier League and their potential Champions League qualification. Barcelona has also shown interest in Isak, scouting him during a recent match, but Newcastle's ownership remains committed to retaining him. Al-Rumayyan's fondness for Isak suggests that the club will prioritize keeping him as they look to build on their recent success.
