Paul Merson admits he is ‘surprised’ Arsenal did not ‘break the bank’ for Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak last summer.

Analysing Isak ahead of Newcastle’s Premier League clash against Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon, Merson told Sky Sports: ‘I’m a big fan of this lad.

‘I’m surprised Arsenal didn’t try and break the bank for him over the summer, I think he was the missing link for Arsenal.

‘I think he can do everything, he can come short, he gets in the box, he can spread the game.

‘That’s what Arsenal need, you need to spread the game so you can get players like Odegaard and Saka on the ball.

‘At the moment Arsenal are a bit congested, they haven’t got a player like Isak. I’m a fan, I’m a really big fan. I thought his header against Arsenal was outstanding. Big fan.’
