Arsenal has been linked with a move for Alexander Isak for several months, and now that the striker’s stock has risen significantly, the Gunners have been repeatedly urged to push forward with a bid to secure his services.

Isak is set to sit out Sunday's FA Cup third-round tie against Bromley to recover from a minor injury picked up against Arsenal in the Carabao Cup win. The Swede already has 15 goals this season, including 10 in his last nine appearances. He has also scored in each of United's last seven Premier League games.

Alan Shearer believes Chelsea are the only Premier League club who can afford to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle United. Isak is thought to be Arsenal’s No.1 transfer target but fresh reports indicate they are increasingly unlikely to bring him to the Emirates.
