Standard Sport understands the Gunners are ready to back Mikel Arteta in the transfer market once more as they look to go one better next season and beat Manchester City to the Premier League title.
The signing of a new forward is believed to be one of their priorities and Isak has admirers in north London, although Newcastle are adamant the forward will not be sold amid reports it will take over £100m for them to consider changing that stance.
Isak, who arrived at St James’ Park from Real Sociedad for around £63m in the summer of 2022, scored 21 Premier League goals last season and still has four years to run on his contract.
The 24-year-old has consistently talked of how happy he is on Tyneside and reaffirmed that stance during an interview with Fotbollskanalen.
“I’m really, really happy at Newcastle,” he said.
“I had my best season of my career. You can’t underestimate that. I love everything about the club, the fans, the city.
“I don’t really have any thoughts of moving or anything like that. I’m having a great time and I’m very happy with my life.”
