Alan Shearer issues Arsenal worrying double warning over Alexander Isak transfer
Share:
Alan Shearer believes just one club could sign Alexander Isak this month - but they would have to pay even MORE than £150m. The Swedish forward has been one of the standout performers in the Premier League this campaign. He already has 15 goals to his name in all competitions this term.
That has seen Isak linked with a host of clubs including Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool, while it is suggested that Newcastle would charge at least £150m for their star striker. But Magpies icon Shearer thinks even that might be enough, hinting that the Blues might be the only club to be able to afford him.
Speaking to Betfair, Shearer said: “Other than possibly Chelsea, I genuinely don’t think that anybody could afford to buy Alexander Isak; because of the way that the rules are structured with PSR, I don’t think that anybody could afford him.

“I’ll never say PSR rules are a good thing - even without them in place, I’m not sure if anybody would be able to go to the price that Newcastle would ask for to sell him. “I’d guess that they wouldn’t even entertain it. If you’ve paid £63 million for someone and he’s smashing the league up like he is right now, what would the price be?.
