Alexander Isak: Transfer guru shares Newcastle update after deal agreed
Newcastle United star Alexander Isak will be considering his future at St James’ Park after Anthony Gordon’s contract news.
That is according to former Man United, Aston Villa and Sunderland chief scout Mick Brown who exclusively told Football Insider that the Magpies’ star players will be in contact with their agents to discuss their next steps.
This comes following Football Insider’s reveal that Gordon has committed to a six-year deal to make him one of the club’s highest-paid players alongside Bruno Guimaraes and Kieran Trippier.
It is said that Isak, 25, will either ask for a similar contract if he wants to stay at the club, or explore a move elsewhere to better his situation.
The striker has been heavily linked with moves to the likes of Arsenal and Chelsea since the summer transfer window, and clubs could look to capitalise on his situation.
His agent will be heavily involved in the decision process as he looks to land the player a new deal, with his teammate setting the benchmark.
While an exit from Newcastle remains equally as likely as staying as things stand, discussions are already underway about where his long-term future may be.
