Despite the former Liverpool striker Heskey told "I think Arsenal fans are living in dreamland if they think that they can sign Alexander Isak in January. The thing is, Newcastle are legitimately chasing top four.

"If I'm Eddie Howe, do you seriously think that I'm going to sell my best player to a rival? There's no love lost between Newcastle and Arsenal, so why would they want to do a favor.

"I think it would take stupid money, crazy money to get Isak out of Newcastle in January. Even if Arsenal wants him in the summer, you're talking over $125m (£100m). Will Arsenal try for him in the summer? Maybe, but who's to say he wouldn't want to stay at Newcastle, especially if it can secure Champions League football."

"If Newcastle does qualify for the Champions League, I can't see it selling any of its best players. For every player, the Champions League is where it's at. It's the pinnacle in club football.

"So, I think to keep a player like that, there might be a gentleman's agreement between him and the club where they will allow him to leave if Champions League football isn't on the St James' Park menu."

Isak has been in excellent form for Newcastle in recent weeks to push Eddie Howe's men back into top four contention. The Magpies sit just one point adrift of Chelsea, and one clear of Manchester City.
