Alexander Isak could be on the move this summer after all, should he reject Newcastle's offer of a contract extension, with the Magpies keen to tie him to fresh terms.

It is claimed that a transfer could become 'distinctly possible' as both Arsenal and Liverpool remain huge admirers of the Sweden international. Liverpool, in particular, are said to be preparing a bid for him after Monday's financial year deadline.

Meanwhile, Isak also remains Mikel Arteta's dream target for Arsenal, although the Gunners have been focusing on Benjamin Sesko and Viktor Gyokeres due to Newcastle's not-for-sale stance.

Brentford's sporting director Phil Giles has effectively admitted that Christian Norgaard is on his way to Arsenal, although he made sure to emphasise that a deal isn't fully wrapped up yet.

“Arsenal approached us in the last two weeks about Christian – we’ve spoken regularly with Andrea Berta," he said. “As it stands, I think it’s more likely to happen than not, but we have to go through the full process, tick all the boxes, and we’ll see at the end of it.

Norgaard is set to replace Thomas Partey, who has left Arsenal as a free agent after the expiration of his contract.

Arsenal have joined the likes of Chelsea, Man Utd and Liverpool in the race to sign Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, who has been given a €100 million price tag.

It is unclear if Arsenal would be ready to spend that much on the Frenchman, considering that they are currently trying to push down the fees required for Viktor Gyokeres and Benjamin Sesko.

Ekitike is now another option under consideration by the Gunners, but Sesko and Gyokeres remain their priority targets for the time being.

Arsenal are interested in Porto winger Pepe, who has a €75m release clause in his contract, leaving the Portuguese club in a strong position.

Pepe is coming off a 'season to forget' and is seen as a potential low-cost option despite his hefty release clause, with initial contact having been made.

It is claimed that a loan deal is the most likely scenario for the winger this summer as Porto would have to forfeit a share of the funds generated from a sale.
