As the 2024/25 season approaches, Napoli’s forward player Victor Osimhen is rumored to be leaving the club.
The forward player has been linked with a move to top clubs in Europe with the focal attention coming from the Premier League.
Napoli initially set a buy-out clause of €150 million for Victor Osimhen, which some interested clubs found to be expensive.
However, reports from Italy suggest Napoli may lower the valuation to €100 million, potentially freeing up funds for manager Antonio Conte to sign Belgian striker Romelu Lukaku.
There have been rumors that Osimhen might play in the Premier League next season after a player profile was created for him on the league’s official website. This development would be a significant boost for Arsenal as they seek to bring in another forward player who can lead the front line next season.
Arsenal is expected to reach out to Napoli in the next few days to discuss the potential transfer of Osimhen. Arteta believes that Arsenal needs to sign a true striker in the off-season, especially after having to rely on Kai Havertz as a false 9 instead of Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus last season (2023/24).
