The Gunners are reportedly doing all they can to land Victor Osimhen this summer after suffering without a striker this season Arsenal are reportedly willing to offload four first-team players in a bid to finance a summer move for Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen. PAY ATTENTION: Stay updated with the Latest Soccer News in Nigeria from Pulse Sports With the Gunners desperate for a clinical finisher, Mikel Arteta is prepared to shake up his squad to secure a marquee signing up front. Arsenal’s striker hunt sparks major summer fire sale After what looks like another season of falling just short in the Premier League title race, Arsenal are ready to address their biggest weakness, a lack of a prolific goal scorer. The Gunners have been linked with several high-profile strikers, including Alexander Isak, Viktor Gyokeres, Benjamin Sesko, and Lautaro Martinez, but it is Osimhen who remains at the top of their wishlist. To fund this ambitious move, Arsenal are reportedly set to part ways with Oleksandr Zinchenko, Jorginho, Kieran Tierney, and Thomas Partey, the Ghanaian international whose injury struggles have limited his influence at the Emirates. According to reports, the departures of these four players could free up £500,000 per week in wages, while their combined market value sits at approximately £55 million. However, Arsenal’s transfer budget still falls short of the fee required to land Osimhen, with Napoli demanding around £68 million for the 2023 CAF Player of the Year, who is currently on loan at Galatasaray. Osimhen weighs his options amid fierce transfer battle Despite Arsenal’s keen interest, Osimhen’s future remains uncertain, as the Nigerian forward has no shortage of top-tier suitors. Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester United, Chelsea, and Liverpool are all in the hunt for a new No. 9, and with Arsenal’s recent lack of trophies, Osimhen might be tempted to join a club with a proven track record of silverware. The Gunners’ project under Mikel Arteta is undoubtedly exciting, but questions remain over whether the club can convince a world-class striker like Osimhen to lead their line. With the summer transfer window looming, Arsenal must move swiftly to finalize their squad overhaul and ensure they land the elite forward they so desperately need.
