Newcastle United has had a terrible transfer window so far. All the targets they had are being either hijacked or could not be done, and they are also on the brink of losing their star forward Alexander Isak. The Swedish International has tabled a transfer request, and reports also suggest that he is willing to move to Liverpool.
The Magpies did everything to keep their star forward on their side. Reports also suggest that they brought in the Swedish International Anthony Elanga for a reported fee of £55 million just to make Alexander Isak more comfortable. But it looks like the 25 year old has set his mind to leave the club.
Newcastle United are presently scouting Nicolas Jackson
When they understood that there was no way they would be able to hold on to Isak, they started looking for his replacement. The first name that they started scouting was Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig, who could have been an excellent replacement for Isak.
Nicolas Jackson was previously scouted by Manchester United
But now it looks like they are going to miss the Slovenian forward too, as Manchester United are set to hijack the deal. It had been a big question why players are not choosing Newcastle United, even when they have Champions League football and also a vision for the future.
Chelsea want £80 million for Nicolas Jackson
Some people suggest that it is because of the geographical situation of the city, Newcastle is quite far from the major cities of England, like Manchester, London, Leeds, or Liverpool. Despite all the difficulties, Newcastle United are still trying hard to find a replacement for Alexander Isak.

Recent reports suggest that they are presently eyeing the English forward of Chelsea, Nicolas Jackson, who was previously scouted by Manchester United, but they refused to pay £80 million. Once the Magpies get the money for Isak, they would definitely be able to land Nicollas Jackson for the reported Chelsea has slapped on him.
