Victor Osimhen has been linked with a move away from Galatasaray this summer.
Arsenal have been mentioned as a potential destination, but the Premier League champions are yet to make a concrete move for the Nigerian.
Arsenal to move for Osimhen?
He has a contract with the Turkish club until 2029, and he’s likely to be an expensive acquisition. Arsenal need a reliable striker, and the 27-year-old could be excellent for them. He has been a reliable goal scorer over the years, and he could cost around €70 million.
The player was recently in action against Corum FK, and he scored a brace for his team. After the match, he responded to the transfer links this summer, saying he is focused on the task at hand and that it is normal for rumours to circulate during transfer Windows. He also added that he will decide on his future when the time comes.

Victor Osimhen on exit links
Osimhen said via Gazete Pencere: “There are always rumours during transfer seasons. I will focus on my job. I focus on my work. We’ll see and think about the future then.”
It is clear that Osimhen is refusing to close doors on a potential exit this summer. It remains to be seen whether his comments encourage Arsenal to make a move.
They need more depth in the attacking unit, and the Nigerian could share the goal-scoring burden with Viktor Gyokeres. He has the physicality and technical attributes to succeed in the Premier League, and he has shown that against English teams in the European competitions. This is the right time for him to take on a new challenge, and moving to England would be ideal.
He could add more cutting edge in the final third and help Arsenal push for major trophies once again. They will be hoping to defend the domestic crown and win the UEFA Champions League in the upcoming campaign.
well done boys. we starting the season with a smile. Mr. arteta your my hero. arsenal forever
I think Arsenal should go for Osimhen
€70m is a bargain for a player of his calibre!
Yes, he would be expensive but he is in his prime and is proven goal scorer in France and Italy (2 of the top 5 leagues) and now scoring goals for fun in Turkey
He will give Arsenal at 30 goals a season in all competitions.
This is the right move. And it looks like Barcelona are considering a move for Viktor Gyokeres. Bring Osimhen and he will combine marvelously with the intelligent Tzolis. This guy plays with his head and if Saka and Dowman could imitate him, Arsenal will score a lot of goals. I think Saka and Dowman are too focused on scoring by themselves after doing the hard work of taking on opposing players.
As for Madueke, he dribbles looking down with one single goal in mind: whip the ball helplessly into the box hoping someone could be there to tackle it. No, No! That’s wrong!
Tzolis sees everyone at the same time that he is taking on opposing players and invites several team mates to different positioning before choosing the one most likely to shoot and score; also, with the option of shooting himself. That leaves defenders confused.
Sell Madueke instead of Nwaneri and offer his position to Nwaneri or Dowman. All Mudueke can do is dribble but after that, he doesn’t know what next to do with the ball!!!!
Kudos
Arsenal must buy osimhen,barcola and yildiz
The explanation around the discussion on caughtoffside was especially well structured. Stepping away from working on Sprunki Sbrunga to read up on caughtoffside proved to be very rewarding.
The observations concerning the discussion on caughtoffside were particularly interesting to read. Taking some time away from managing Baby Gender Predictor to read about caughtoffside was definitely worthwhile.
Interesting update on Osimhen—he scored a brace against Corum FK just recently, which shows he’s still finding his rhythm at Galatasaray. The €70m price tag and contract until 2029 definitely make any move tricky, but theArsenal link is intriguing. Even though I spend most of my free time sketching country outlines on Country Draw, I can’t help following football transfer drama now and then. It’s a nice change of pace from the quiet concentration map drawing requires!
