Al Hilal Eyes Deal for Newcastle's Alexander Isak
Al Hilal, of the Saudi Pro League, has expressed interest in acquiring Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, as revealed by a source to ESPN. While discussions have taken place internally, no formal communication has occurred with Newcastle.
Financial Details Under Consideration
The Saudi side has been gathering information on the financial aspects of a potential agreement, with head coach Simone Inzaghi reportedly in favor of the move. However, the complexity of luring the 25-year-old away from Europe poses a challenge.
Isak's Current Status
Isak, who did not participate in Newcastle's recent friendly match against Celtic, has also been linked with Liverpool. Despite uncertainties surrounding his future at Newcastle, manager Eddie Howe emphasized Isak's contentment at the club.
Meanwhile, Al Hilal is actively seeking a striker and had previously made a significant offer to Victor Osimhen before his likely move to Galatasaray following a loan spell at the Turkish club.
