BREAKING NEWS: coming live from Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal believe that Victor Osimhen will join them and they are ready to do anything to bring the Nigerian star to Emirates next summer. According to Fabrizio Romano the club are ready to bring €100 million and include a sensational swap deal involving one of their star player. Huge transfer involving Victor Osimhen is planned for Arsenal.
Victor Osimhen is expected to join Arsenal in the summer of 2020 in what could turn out to be a spectacular Gabriel Jesus trade.
The Daily Cannon, a reputable Arsenal website, revealed an exclusive by @MoArsenal86, an influential Arsenal social media user.
According to the exclusive, Osimhen is expected to join the Gunners at the end of the current campaign.
Additionally, Gabriel Jesus may transfer to Napoli as part of the agreement to take the place of the Nigerian striker.
Although it is difficult to confirm the report’s accuracy, it is true that Osimhen’s future at Napoli is seriously questionable. Although he is expected to sign a one-year extension with a €130–140 million release clause, his contract expires in 2025.
This season, the 24-year-old has had several run-ins with the team, including a rift with former manager Rudi Garcia and a widely reported TikTok controversy.
In September, Osimhen’s failure to convert a penalty was made fun of on Napoli’s official TikTok account. Osimhen was enraged by the video, which was later removed. The Nigerian took offence at a previous TikTok video in which Osimhen was compared to a coconut.
Napoli could very well try to sell Arsenal at the end of the current campaign, but Chelsea could also make a move.
Similar to Arsenal, the Blues intend to sign a top striker in 2024, and Osimhen is near the top of their shortlist.
Osimhen for Napoli in 2022–2023
Osimhen had an incredible 2022–23 season, making 39 appearances across all competitions and scoring a brilliant 31 goals.
He was the leading scorer in the Italian top division with 26 Serie A goals, helping Napoli win their first Scudetto in thirty-three years.
Additionally, he scored five goals in the Champions League to help Napoli advance to the quarterfinals before falling to AC Milan 2-1 overall.
A major factor in Napoli’s tie loss has been attributed to Osimhen’s injury during the first leg.
He has eight goals this season across 16 games across all competitions.
