The English Premier League is in a state of flux, with Arsenal Football Club hitting an untimely financial hurdle in their pursuit of a deal for Newcastle United striker Isaac, according to the Daily Mail. Club boss Stan Kroenke seems to have reservations about the mega-money transfer.

Arsenal are busy revitalizing their assets and trying to ease the financial pressure. It is reported that the team plans to cautiously evaluate the offer for Jesus as the season winds down, and midfielder Zinchenko is also likely to find a new owner in the transfer market this month. It is worth mentioning that Arsenal have made it clear that they will not renew the contract of midfielder Thomas Partey, whose contract is about to expire and whose exorbitant salary amounts to £150,000 per week.

Inside sources close to the situation have revealed that, according to the Daily Mail, while Arsenal have done a fair job of following the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules, the club still has to be tough on them. The possibility of Isak's introduction has been gradually marginalized as a result.

Newcastle United, on the other hand, have not set a price tag for Isaac, with the intention of retaining the Swedish star. However, if Arsenal or other clubs want to facilitate a deal, Newcastle are afraid that they will offer an astronomical transfer fee, which may even break Chelsea's Premier League transfer fee record of £115 million paid for Moises Caicedo.
