Arsenal’s reason behind snubbing Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak for Viktor Gyokeres has been revealed, as Liverpool are sent a warning.

Arsenal could be set to play a key role in Liverpool 's pursuit of Alexander Isak. The Reds are keen to acquire the services of the Newcastle star this summer and have already seen a £110million bid rejected for the striker. Arne Slot ’s side remain determined to sign the Swedish international nevertheless.

By the end of June, the Reds had wrapped up a club-record £116million deal for Florian Wirtz, secured Jeremie Frimpong as a replacement for Trent Alexander-Arnold, and signed Milos Kerkez for £40m.
