Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak has broken silence on reports linking him with a big-money summer move to Arsenal.
Isak was impressive for the Magpies during the just-concluded 2023/24 season, ending the campaign as the club's top scorer with 25 goals across competitions.
According to Metro UK, the 24-year-old's eye for the goal has put him on the radar of some of Europe's top clubs.

Barcelona are among the top clubs that have been linked with a move for Isak, while Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur are also said to have plotted bids of £100million to prise the striker away.
However, the Sweden international has poured cold water on a possible move away this summer.
Speaking to Swedish outlet Fotbollskanalen on his football future, the Newcastle ace insisted that he is happy at St. James Park.
"I’m enjoying myself very, very much in Newcastle. I just had the best season of my career. That should not be underestimated," he said.
"I love everything really about the club, the fans, the city," he added.

FootballIsak's declaration could leave Arsenal with no choice but to look elsewhere as they push to sign a prolific striker.
The Gunners are hoping to land the services of a proven forward, with their current No.9, Gabriel Jesus, struggling for form due to injuries.
The north Londoners have already been linked with a move for RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, who is also reportedly wanted by Chelsea.
Earlier, Sports Brief reported on Arsenal embarking on a summer overhaul that has seen several players released ahead of the summer transfer window.
