Newcastle do not have to sell Isak despite FFP fears and they need to keep the 'electric' striker to bridge the gap to suitors Arsenal

Newcastle do not have to sell Isak despite FFP fears and they need to keep the 'electric' striker to bridge the gap to suitors Arsenalassertion that he would be staying at Newcastle in the summer and beyond, he said: “Yeah, of course I want to be here in the future.

It feels like a big statement at an important time because Isak is currently on course to become the first Newcastle player since Alan Shearer to score more than 20 goals in a season. His status both at the club and externally – where there has been talk of a £100m valuation and interest fromWhen he signed, for a club record £63m 18 months ago, it felt like Newcastle’s soaring trajectory was inevitable.

The club had so little PSR headroom in January that they were unable to sign any reinforcements and CEO Darren Eales had admitted that the Magpies must become used to‘ release clause – which is in excess of £100m – makes speculation about a sale inevitable, the same is not true of Isak. He is virtually impossible to replace, the perfect age and, crucially, wedded to what the club are trying to do despite this season’s growing pains.

“It’s not my position. I love playing, we have important games, there’s no focus there , I just want to do good for the team.”If Newcastle are to move on from this season’s travails, building around their best is key. Even Howe, who has been honest about the challenges Newcastle’s PSR position puts them in, has been sending not-too-subtle messages about the future of his talisman.
