Transfer: Petit urges Arsenal to sign Osimhen

Former Arsenal player Emmanuel Petit has urged the Gunners to sign Victor Osimhen.

The North London team is poised to sign a new striker after failing to win the Premier League again this season.

Osimhen, who is scheduled to depart Napoli this season, has a release clause of between €120 to €130 million.


Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, and Chelsea are among the clubs connected to the Nigerian.

Petit thought Osimhen would be a fantastic addition to the Arsenal club.


"I think Arsenal need a 30-goal striker to finally win the Premier League and that man could be Victor Osimhen, who has been amazing with Lille and then Napoli," Petit stated to Boylesports.

“His dream is to come to England, and he could be brilliant here. He’s physically so strong and is an out and out number nine, so he’d be my first choice.”
