Newcastle striker Alexander Isak is the subject of interest from Chelsea, who are reportedly willing to offer one of their players in a swap deal for him.
The Swedish international was one of the standout players in the Premier League last season and scored an impressive 25 goals in 40 matches for the Magpies.

Newcastle value Isak at over £115m but it has been suggested that Chelsea could offer Nicolas Jackson as a makeweight to drive his price down.
Enzo Maresca isn’t convinced by Jackson and it’s no secret that he’s looking to bring in more competition for him, but whether he’d be willing to let him go is another question.
Newcastle have had to sell players due to the Premier League’s financial rules, with Elliot Anderson and Yankuba Minteh set to join Nottingham Forest and Brighton respectively for roughly £70m combined.
That has taken the pressure off but multiple outlets have suggested that Chelsea’s interest in star striker Isak remains.
