Chris Waddle, a Newcastle United legend, has commended Alexander Isak’s remarkable form, praising the Swedish striker as an ideal Premier League forward.
Isak, who has scored in seven consecutive matches, is attracting significant interest, with Arsenal reportedly eyeing him as a top transfer target.
Isak’s skill set – including pace, dribbling ability, and clinical finishing – has made him a standout player in Eddie Howe’s squad.
Waddle emphasized that the 25-year-old’s fitness is critical to sustaining his impressive performances.
Injuries have been a recurring issue in Isak’s career, but his recent consistency has demonstrated his ability to lead Newcastle’s frontline effectively.
Arsenal’s long-standing interest in Isak stems from his time at Real Sociedad, but the striker’s £150 million valuation poses a potential obstacle.
Despite this, his dynamic play and quick feet align perfectly with the modern demands of a Premier League striker, making him a tantalizing prospect for Mikel Arteta’s side.
As Newcastle faces Arsenal in the Carabao Cup semi-final, Isak will have another opportunity to showcase his talent.
Waddle believes Newcastle is in a prime position to end their trophy drought, citing the League Cup as a golden opportunity for Eddie Howe and his team to secure silverware.
The spotlight remains on Alexander Isak, whose blend of talent and determination continues to captivate fans and fuel speculation about his future in the Premier League.
He’s a superstar and many people don’t realise it yet.
