Forget Toney as Arteta told to bring one of games best to Arsenal in January

Kevin Campbell has urged his former club Arsenal to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen in the comh transfer windows.

Last season Osimhen has developed into one of the most dangerous strikers in Europe – with his deadly finishing helping Napoli reach the top of Seria A and winning that title

The 24-year-old hit 31 goals  for the Italians las season and it is no secret that the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, ARSENAL and PSG are all reportedly eyeing up a potential deal for the Nigerian star.

The Gunners are reportedly looking to sign a new forward in the January transfer window and have been strongly linked to Brentford star Ivan Toney, but Campbell thinks the north Londoners could get Osimhen if they wait until the end of the season.

His future at Napoli appears to be up in the air amid a nasty fall-out and Osimhen could be set to leave amid reported interest from Premier League clubs.

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID – 

‘What Osimhen would cost, it would be ground-breaking,’ Campbell told Sky Sports. ‘But it’s just like anything, isn’t it?

‘If you want to be that side and you want that style of play, that type of player, you’ve got to pay the money.

‘Obviously with Champions League money now coming in, ARSENAL might be in with a shout of signing Osimhen next summer.’

Campbell is not ruling out a move for Toney, though, and has identified him as another option if the Gunners feel they cannot wait until the end of the season.

‘(Brentford manager) Thomas Frank might have somebody who can help Arsenal this season,’ he added. ‘Arsenal might look to do a deal in January.

Coming to the Premier League is not easy for most strikers and he could fail to adapt to the English game – so maybe it would be better that the ARSENAL try to sign somebody like IvanToney?

We are not saying that he wont score – we are just saying that he may not handle the pressure of playing for a massive club like.

Plus the fact that he would cost over £100 million to sign, probably means that ARSENAL will make the decision to not proceed to chase Osimhen.

But it will be very interesting to see just how far the Gunners take this.
