"Newcastle" is set to part ways with the striker who couldn't get past Husanov

One of the wealthiest clubs in the English Premier League, “Newcastle,” is likely to struggle to retain their main striker, Alexander Isak, according to it seems.

According to The Telegraph, the Swedish striker is expected to move to another club this summer.

The Newcastle management has decided to sell Isak if the team cannot secure a spot in the UEFA Champions League next season.

In the last round, “Newcastle” suffered a 0:4 defeat against direct rivals “Manchester City.” In that match, the “City” defender Abduqodir Husanov completely neutralized Alexander Isak.

The 25-year-old striker is currently attracting interest from “Arsenal,” “Liverpool,” “Barselona,” and “Chelsi.”

This season, Isak has scored 19 goals and provided 5 assists in 29 matches. Experts from the Transfermarkt portal have valued him at 75 million euros.
