Newcastle United’s chairman, Yasir Al-Rumayyan, has stated that striker Alexander Isak is not for sale this summer. The Swedish forward, who has Eritrean heritage, has been instrumental in Newcastle’s recent successes.

Al-Rumayyan, representing the club’s Saudi ownership, emphasized the importance of retaining key players like Isak to maintain and build upon their current momentum.

According to the Daily Mail, he explained that selling such pivotal talent would be counterproductive to the club’s ambitions.

Isak’s performance has not gone unnoticed, with top European clubs like Barcelona and Arsenal reportedly showing interest.

However, Newcastle’s management remains resolute in their decision to keep the 25-year-old striker, who is under contract until 2028.

The club’s recent Carabao Cup victory, their first major trophy since 1955, has further solidified their determination to retain top talent.

Al-Rumayyan was present at Wembley to witness the historic win, during which Isak delivered an outstanding performance. citeturn0search1

Newcastle’s leadership is also addressing financial regulations that impact their growth.

Al-Rumayyan highlighted the challenges posed by profitability and sustainability rules, which can hinder rapid progress.

Despite these obstacles, the club is committed to strategic investments and infrastructure development, including plans for a new training facility and potential stadium expansion.
