Paris Saint-Germain manager Luis Enrique dismissed Randal Kolo Muani as a good fit for his plans, leading to his move to Juventus. As a result, the capital club could be in the market for a No. 9 and have been linked to various names.
According to Fichajes, Enrique has set his sights on Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak. The Swedish striker has caught the manager’s attention with his speed, technical ability, and sharp finishing, qualities that make him a strong candidate for the attacking style Enrique wants to implement in Paris.
Meanwhile, FootballTransfers recently reported that Arsenal admire Isak, but Liverpool are believed to be the most determined suitors and currently hold the edge in a potential deal.

According to The Telegraph, Newcastle are keen to keep Isak at St James’ Park beyond the summer. The club reportedly plans to offer the Swedish striker a new contract as a reward for his impressive form and to secure his future.
Moreover, Arsenal are said to be interested in Isak and could make a move for him this summer if they decide not to sign a striker during the current transfer window.
Former Newcastle star Alan Shearer believes Isak’s value could exceed £150 million thanks to his outstanding form. Shearer believes Chelsea might have an edge over Arsenal in the race to sign him but warns the Blues to tread carefully, as his price could keep climbing.
