Sky Sports panellist Dougie Critchley has hailed Newcastle United striker Alexander Isak, comparing him with Arsenal legend Thierry Henry amid links with the Gunners.

Arsenal have been linked with the Swedish frontman in the upcoming summer transfer window.

However, analysing Isak’s performance in Newcastle United’s Premier League 1-1 draw with Everton on Tuesday, Critchley described the attacker as a high-quality player.

“Alexander Isak is a really high-quality player. He sort of reminds me of Thierry Henry in his style of play. The way he manipulates defenders, manipulates goalkeepers,” Critchley said.
