At this moment in time, there is still no certainty that Victor Osimhen will be leaving Napoli this summer despite a lot of interest from England, including from Arsenal.
While the Gunners are doing extremely well in the Premier League and set to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League, there is a feeling an out and out striker is needed at the Emirates.
The Nigeria international is exactly that, and have proven his ability to find the back of the net in Italy, catching the eye of big clubs along the way, including Arsenal, as pointed out by Il Mattino, relayed by Napoli Magazine.
They are confident that Osimhen ‘will leave’, mostly because ‘he is the first to push’ for a move away from the south of Italy and a ‘change of scenery’.
The striker is ‘looking for new adventures’, and various intermediaries are ‘already in action’, as his agent has ‘failed to bring the right offer’ for the Serie A side to this date.
Right now, it’s said Arsenal and Chelsea, alongside Paris Saint-Germain are ‘ready to reach €90m’ to get him, with no one prepared to meet the €130m clause in his contract.
However, despite previous claims, it’s added that Aurelio De Laurentiis ‘does not demand’ for it to be met to let his star leave, making any transfer a bit more affordable.
