Newcastle fire new message at Arsenal after Isak approach

The Gunners sounded out Newcastle earlier this summer about the Swede and were quoted a fee of £115m.

However, the Independent says the Gunners have now been informed that Isak isn't for sale after a new enquiry was made in recent days.

Toon boss Eddie Howe has said of Isak: "He's an outstanding talent and no one connected with Newcastle would want to lose him."

Gunners chief Edu is seeking a new centre-forward signing this summer, but is hitting dead ends in his pursuit.
