Arsenal-related With two goals in Newcastle’s 4-0 victory against Tottenham over the weekend, Alexander Isak was in incredible form.
Although there is growing uncertainty about Alexander Isak’s future in the North East, Anthony Gordon of Newcastle United is confident that his teammate has what it takes to be one of the best football players in the world.

Despite suffering a couple groin ailments this season, Isak was in outstanding form on Saturday at St James’ Park against Tottenham Hotspur, scoring two goals to push his season total over 20. Gordon praised the Swedish striker’s skill when speaking on TNT Sports, saying, “It’s hard to describe [how good Isak is].”
“You see it out on the pitch and you don’t need me to tell you. He’s so gifted. He can be one of the best players in the world if he stays fit. He’s so good to play with.”
Gordon also highlighted Isak’s contribution to his assist which he felt had little to do with himself. He added: “You saw the assist I got for him, I just passed him the ball and he sat a few players down. That was all him. What a player.”
Isak’s spectacular performance will likely fuel rumors regarding his future at Newcastle, as Arsenal is rumored to be interested in the former Real Sociedad player as they look for a prolific striker. Gabriel Jesus’s form has declined this season, so Kai Havertz has been used more frequently in the center forward position.
Earlier this month, Isak was questioned about remaining with Eddie Howe’s side, and he responded: “Yeah, of course I want to be here in the future.
