Chelsea Show Further Interest In Signing Newcastle striker.
Chelsea made further contact with Newcastle over Alexander Isak on Friday; Newcastle would be looking for over £100m for the striker; Chelsea in talks with Leicester over forward Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall
New Blues boss Enzo Maresca is keen to add a proven Premier League goalscorer to his ranks and Isak fits the bill.
Newcastle need to sell a player to comply with Profitability and Sustainability Regulations (PSR) before July 1 and would be looking for over £100m to consider selling their star striker.
Newcastle do not want to sell any of their star players this window but are aware of the delicate situation and could incur a points deduction if they don’t sell.
Chelsea’s first enquiry landed earlier this week and reports understands there has been further contact between the clubs on Friday.
Isak scored 25 goals last season for Newcastle despite missing two parts of the season with a recurring groin injury.
Meanwhile, Newcastle’s Yankuba Minteh was close to a £35m move to Everton earlier this week but the deal fell through.
