To prevent the ability to keep Alexander Isak, BLD Newcastle is intending to recruit a new striker. According to the media of the foggy country, Newcastle directed the attention of the attack star Gabriel Jesus of Arsenal.
Jesus has 3 seasons for Arsenal. Due to health problems, this Brazilian striker does not play regularly. Jesus's “firing” capacity is not very impressive when he only scored 11, 8 and 7 goals in the last 3 seasons. Calculated, the total number of goals that Jesus has written to Arsenal is not equal to what Isak does for Newcastle only last season (“shooting” 27 times).
Even so, in the context of Isak being enthusiastically dragged by Liverpool, BLD Newcastle still wants to bring Jesus to St James' Park to be ready to replace Swedish colleagues. Notably, before keeping their eyes on Jesus, they targeted a number of goals like Joao Pedro or Hugo Ekitike but withdrawed it and could not buy these players.
With Jesus just a secondary choice in Arsenal attack after Kai Havertz, it also had to compete with the popular rookie Viktor Gyokeres, Newcastle's proposal that could be “the end” for him at this time.
If coming to Newcastle, the former Man City striker promises to play more often. The reason is because Isak is leaving St James' Park, while the striker Callum Wilson broke up with Chieu Chu after 5 seasons with Newcastle.
According to Caghtoffside, BLD Newcastle will generally not have difficulty persuading Arsenal to transfer Jesus to himself. The biggest expensive Vuong for them is just Jesus who is receiving a salary of up to £ 265,000/week at Arsenal, so he will probably ask for a high income at the new stop.
