Italian journalist Valter De Maggio claims Napoli player Victor Osimhen is keen to joining Arsenal during the next transfer window. The Nigerian attacker has shown his mettle in Serie A since arriving at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona from LOSC Lille in 2020, helping Napoli win the Scudetto the previous season. Having shown his skill in Italy, Osimhen is allegedly eager to advance in his profession. Arsenal is trying to bolster their assault, so Osimhen has become a major target.
De Maggio said on Radio Kiss Kiss Napoli (via Calcio Napoli 24) that Osimhen is open to moving to the Premier League and would think about signing with Arsenal if they made a good offer. This Osimhen interest fits well with Arsenal’s need to add a great striker to their team.
One of Osimhen’s contracts has a £113 million release clause that may be activated this summer. De Maggio does point out that it is doubtful that any team would give the striker such a hefty sum. Should Arsenal or any other team fall short of this estimate, Osimhen may think about going to Saudi Arabia as a backup.
World Class Striker Wants To Move To Arsenal
“Osimhen wants the Premier League; if the offer doesn’t come, he would think about the Arab option,” said De Maggio. The clause is not ready to be paid by any team today. In any other case, Osimhen could think of Saudi Arabia.
Being among the best attackers in the world, Osimhen is an asset to any squad. His kind of player would be a big advantage for Arsenal. His injury history, however, may worry the Gunners, who need to consider this danger before committing a big sum of money.
The circumstances are interesting as Arsenal’s offensive lineup may be greatly impacted by their pursuit of Osimhen. Whether the North London club chooses to invest in the Nigerian striker and maybe add a world-class talent to their ranks will become clear during the next transfer window. Watching this possible deal intently will be fans and pundits, since it may determine Arsenal’s fate in the next campaign.
