Arsenal legend Ian Wright is afraid that Newcastle’s Alexander Isak will snub Arsenal this summer to join another Premier League club.
Isak is believed to be Mikel Arteta’s dream transfer signing as he seeks to bolster his attacking department.
The Gunners’ squad has looked short even before season-ending injuries to Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz.
Speculation claims Arsenal tried to sign Isak during the January transfer window but were put off by Newcastle’s £120m demand.
Arsenal may change their stance and go all in for Isak, who has scored 19 goals in 24 Premier League games this season.
When asked if he believes Isak would rather join Arsenal or Liverpool, Wright said on Stick To Football:
*”He would probably go to Liverpool.
“I’d like to think Mikel Arteta could convince him, but look at Liverpool and Arne Slot. Slot hasn’t even got his own players in yet.
“That seems like a more attractive proposition, but again, Arsenal will need to do the work.
“I would hate it if it was between Arsenal and Liverpool because he would probably go for Liverpool with the way it’s gone for Arne Slot.”
