Chelsea on alert as £100 million target ready to quit Prem side!
Newcastle United star and long-term CHELSEA target Aleksander Isak is ready to quit the Toon if they fail to achieve Champions League football this season.
Isak, who has only scored once for Newcastle so far this term, has ambitions to keep playing in the Champions League after having a taste at Toon a year ago, but But if Eddie Howe’s side miss out on a top four finish then he could potentially look to leave, with a lack of an extended deal increasing that possibility.
Isak remains under contract until 2028 and preliminary discussions between the Magpies and the star over a new package were held before the summer, but SunSport understands that more talks are NOT currently taking place and there are none pencilled in due to him still having three years left.
Freddie Ljungberg, a two-time Premier League winner, recently claimed Isak can go to another level at the likes of Arsenal, Chelsea or Man City and has described his compatriot as ‘freaking special’.
‘I like Isak. His top level is huge,’ the Arsenal legend told Swedish outlet Expressen.
‘He has these super top qualities that I, as a coach, might look for. I want players who have some super power, then you can put them in special situations and know that they will make a difference.
‘His top qualities are so freaking special that I think he can be even better. He could go all the way up to the absolute top because of the speed he has, the nice finishes and the understanding of the game.
‘This is the player for whom I want things to go so incredibly well. He seems so humble and down to earth, and it feels like he just wants to work hard and play football.
‘I really hope he can take the next step. Newcastle is a good club. There is nothing wrong with that.
‘But at some point I hope he goes to Arsenal, CHELSEA or Man City where he can pour in goals. That’s what I hope.’
