Arsenal news: Q&A – Will Gunners try to sign Alexander Isak?

BBC Sport’s football news reporter Alex Howell has been answering your questions on the transfer window.

Guy, Nottingham: As an Arsenal fan, I understand the need for a proper striker, but I’m not sure spending £150m on Alexander Isak is the best use of our money. Do you think we would be getting a Benjamin Sesko or Jonathan David for a cheaper price and then strengthening other positions like left wing or attacking midfield, or splashing the cash on one complete game-changer like Isak?

Alex: That problem is exactly why Arsenal have hired Andrea Berta. There is no doubt that Isak would take Arsenal up a level. He’s proven that he is a top-level forward, and his goal record this season shows that again.

Signing him is very difficult and is made even harder if Newcastle get into the Champions League.

Sesko has been monitored for a while, is younger and would fit the Arsenal profile.

I think Arsenal need an attacking midfield player as well as a forward to supplement their attack.
