Overview

  • Viktor Gyökeres has agreed personal terms for a £55.1 million guaranteed fee plus £8.7 million in add-ons and is scheduled to undergo his Arsenal medical.
  • Alexander Isak has formally informed Newcastle United of his wish to explore summer transfer options and has been absent from the pre-season tour citing a minor thigh injury.
  • Newcastle United insists Isak is not for sale, values him at over £150 million and will leave any decision on his future to chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan and the Public Investment Fund.
  • Liverpool have made formal enquiries about Isak and are prepared to bid around £120 million–£125 million subject to Newcastle meeting their valuation.
  • Both Arsenal and Newcastle are navigating Financial Fair Play constraints, with their boards and ownership bodies directly steering these multimillion-pound transfer decisions.
