Things are starting to warm up now with the transfer window open. A couple of activities have already been finalized as bargains progress over signings across the world.
For Arsenal, there are a couple of high-profile players associated with a shifting to North London as Mikel Arteta proceeds with the process of shaping the team into one that fully exemplifies his identity. The Spaniard’s transfers came off well last summer and he’ll be watching out in order to get identical accomplishments this time too.
Even though the Arsenal barely missed qualifying for the Champions League, the former Manchester City assistant coach will be optimistic that his side will be prepared to ascend another top-four challenge with new improvements who push both the floor and ceiling of the squad. With that being asserted, there have been some recent rumors associating players with the Emirates.
According to Italian publication IL MATTINO, Napoli are noted to be willing to trade their talisman Victor Osimhen for £85 million. The report acknowledged that Arsenal are really eager in their bid to complete the signing process of the Nigerian forward and has already made a £51 million bid that was rejected.
But since then, Arsenal’s summer transfer window is predicted to be an active one as Mikel Arteta seeks to stop the club’s six-year UEFA Champions League intermission.
However, about 7 days ago, the Italian publication La Gazzetta Dello Sport reported that Arsenal is currently developing a bid for Victor Osimhen amidst attraction from Manchester United for a probable transfer. He is one of the greatly sought-after attackers in world football right now and is now being connected with a play for the Premier League.
Osimhen already has his eyes set on shifting to England this summer to take his career to newer lengths. Man United and the Gunners are fighting it out for his employment, but it is the latter who appear to be carrying their interest to the next degree. Napoli has fixed an £86 million price tag, but Arsenal is prepared to meet that amount and is even arranging a proposal as of the moment.
Mikel Arteta’s side is not dissuaded by the Serie A club’s inquiring price as they recognize the Red Devils cannot afford to pay that sum for the Nigerian international. If that is the situation, however, then Erik ten Hag’s side would be virtually ruled out of the argument for another center-forward, having endured a setback in their quest for Darwin Nunez.
The report claims that Napoli wants €100 million (£86 million) for the Nigerian multinational, a fee that is said to not put Arsenal off the motion. If the North Londoners do end up spending that much, it would smash the club’s current record signing – when they paid £72 million for Nicolas Pepe back in the summer of 2019.
