Howe makes clear Newcastle stand on Isak future

Newcastle boss Eddie Howe insists Alexander Isak isn't for sale.

The Sweden striker has been linked with Arsenal. He now has 18 goals for Newcastle this season.

"If things show up, things can happen," began Howe, after Newcastle defeated West Ham.

"He's an outstanding talent and no one connected with Newcastle would want to lose him.

"He was excellent on Saturday. He didn't score in open play but his two penalties were outstanding and his general play was very good. His link play, his athleticism, he looked in a really good place."
