Jose Enrique backs Alexander Isak to become Newcastle United legend, provided he does one thing

Jose Enrique believes we could one day talk about Alexander Isak alongside Newcastle United legends like Alan Shearer, David Ginola and Kevin Keegan, provided he can stay injury free.

After joining from Real Sociedad last summer, the 23-year-old Swede has had an impressive debut season in the Premier League, netting ten goals and showing plenty of promising qualities. But injuries have limited him to only 21 league appearances so far.

Despite that, former Newcastle and Liverpool defender Enrique is very excited about what he's seen from Isak, and believes as long as he does remain injury free, there is no reason he can't write his name into the club's history books alongside the aforementioned greats.
