It will be quite a battle in the transfer market this summer. Alexander Isak has played his way into the Premier League’s best striker after 27 games, with 19 goals and 5 assists (a total of 24 points to Haaland’s 23 points). Where Haaland has committed to City games for “forever and ever”, Newcastle are facing a transfer window where they are unlikely to be able to stop Isak sales. Rules for profitable and sustainable club operations must be adhered to, while Champions League clubs are pushing to tempt the 25-year-old to leave Newcastle.
Arsenal are ready if the opportunity arises, Barcelona are getting ready for an acrobatic manoeuvre for a €100 million bid, now it is reported that PSG have a plan that will give Newcastle enough incentive to give up their top scorer.
According to RMC Sports’ Daniel Riolo, PSG have shown strong interest in Alexander Isak signing this summer. The Ligue 1 giant is said to be ready to swap Isak for Randal Kolo Muani, Marco Ansenso and Concalo Ramos.
Top scorer Muani (market value €30 million) was brought in from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer of 2023, but hasn’t quite found his place with Luis Enrique. In January this year, the French international striker was loaned out to Juventus, where he scored in his first three Serie A games. A start we have to go all the way back to 1990 and Roberto Baggio to find the like.
Marco Asensio (market value €20 million) is also on loan, the former Real Madrid star opted for the Premier League and Aston Villa. Here, the right winger has pulled off with a wild 4 goals in the first 6 games.
Portuguese striker Concalo Ramos (market value €50 million) was brought in from Benfica in 2023 and the 23-year-old now has a solid 26 goals in 64 appearances.
A bit of an offer of barter, the question is whether Newcastle will accept anything other than cash if they are going to sell their Swedish striker diamond first.
