Former Arsenal attacker Alex Iwobi has said that his compatriot Victor Osimhen could be interested in a move to the Premier League.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, the Gunners are among a handful of teams interested in Osimhen. Newcastle United and Bayern Munich are also eyeing the Napoli forward, while, as per 90min, Arsenal's rivals Chelsea are interested too.
Amid speculation over Osimhen's future, his Nigeria teammate Iwobi has fanned the flames. The Everton midfielder, who rose through the ranks at Arsenal and played 149 times for the first team, said on "The Beautiful Game Podcast" (as quoted by HITC):
“He (Osimhen) has asked. All of them ask. I am sure he probably has the ambition to play in the Premier League.”
Osimhen has been in tremendous form for an incredible Napoli side this season. The Nigerian is the top scorer in Serie A, having netted 21 times in 23 games to help his side go 19 points clear at the top with 11 games to go.
He has also scored four times in five UEFA Champions League games to lead Napoli to the quarterfinals of the competition for the first time.
"I don't know what the future holds" - Arsenal target Victor Osimhen
Victor Osimhen recently spoke about his future amid links with various clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea.
The striker, whose contract with Napoli runs till the summer of 2025, told Sport1 earlier this month (as quoted by Manchester Evening News):
"I don't know what the future holds. I think I'm on the right track. At the end of the season, I will sit down with my agents and discuss everything."
Osimhen didn't entirely shut down the possibility of staying in Naples:
"I will also be in talks with the club. I am incredibly grateful to Naples. We will find a good solution together."
The Nigerian joined Napoli from LOSC Lille in 2020 for a fee of around €68 million, according to GOAL. Since then, he has scored 53 goals and laid out 14 assists in 91 games across competitions for the runaway Serie A leaders.
