CHELSEA have reportedly made an approach to sign Alexander Isak from Newcastle.
But they could be forced to pay a club-record transfer fee for the Swedish striker.
Chelsea have made no secret of their desire to land a top forward this summer.
The Blues spurned numerous chances last season as Nicolas Jackson netted just 14 times.
Christopher Nkunku also missed most of the campaign through injury.
And Todd Boehly is determined to land a clinical hitman as Enzo Maresca prepares to kick off his Stamford Bridge reign.
Chelsea have looked at several strikers this month including Lille's Jonathan David, Aston Villa's Jhon Duran and Atletico Madrid's Samu Omorodion.
But the Mail claims they have now turned their attention to Isak.
The 24-year-old has established himself as one of the Premier League's top attackers, scoring 35 goals in 67 games following a £55million move from Real Sociedad in 2022.

if it is true, then chelsea has found the password for assessing the top four and trophies in the new decade. Mulilo and Isak are all good for chelsea if to happen. the secret is that it will make a huge decision to sign above 20 years of age players because the project is for under 20 years, not above that.

what we really need most now is our defensive line because if you go back to last season I'm not mistaken most of the goals that we scored almost close to the one that we conceed so I'll suggest that we should work on the defense first

Do you think Isaak is better than our attackers? I don't think so. I think we need to be patient and tolerant with the players we already have, let's have faith in them they will deliver.
Wise one

I can support this one so long as it doesn't cost Chelsea more than 60m
it will cost more I'm sure .. because no desire to sell him in the first place.... so a ridiculous amount alone can get him out.... business.... if Chelsea can squander money for many unwanted players .... I think they should/can buy him... he's far more better... I'll go all in and get him.

Chelsea don't have any shortlist of players they want. They just wait and rush there with more money once a rival team identify a player, forget that the player fit in with their playing style or not

This is the best option Chelsea can ever make and they will never regret buying him. The once a time I commented on Jackson post on Instagram say he is a flop and Chelsea should buy Isak and he blocked me immediately. I said to him how did you make it to world of football? I’m sure it pains him bad but that’s just the truth he can play in other small clubs but not Chelsea
he may have missed many Chances but he is good technically and he can improve.
