Alexander Isak has teased 'we'll see' after Alan Shearer floated the prospect of the Newcastle United star signing a new long-term contract. Isak still has three-and-a-half years left to run on his current deal, but Newcastle intend to sit down with the Sweden star to discuss fresh terms. Understandably so.

The Magpies also don’t need to sell. With strong financial backing, Newcastle can afford to keep their top players. They are building for the future, and Isak is a key part of that plan. Newcastle fans will hope the club stands firm. If Arsenal want Isak, they will have to do much better than this.
