Former England striker Emile Heskey admits he's a big fan of Newcastle ace Alexander Isak.

Heskey says Isak has the potential to match Manchester City star Erling Haaland.

He told Expressen: "What I love about Isak is that he is not just a goalscorer. He wants others to score as well, and he is just as happy helping others to score.

"What is most important to him is that the team is doing well. He looks extremely interesting. He contributes so much.

"He can score as many goals as Haaland, because you see the chances he gets. If he can create chances going forward, there is no reason why he shouldn't score as many goals."
