Forget Ivan Toney Mikel – Frenchman tells Arsenal to sign £112m Million goal-machine
Ex-Arsenal star Mikael Silvestre revealed Mikel Arteta should sign striker Victor Osimhen instead of Ivan Toney.
The Spaniard is desperate for a “more complete striker” after his side were knocked out of the FA Cup in their 2-0 defeat to Liverpool on Sunday, and there has been alot of speculation. that a striker could be signed this transfer window.
Ivan Toney is the man that many of the Gunners fans would like to see arrive – But Silvestre has opened up and claimed that ARSENAL should try and sign Victor Osimhen instead this transfer window.
He told GGRecon: “£100 million is extremely high. I know goalscorers are very rare, but that’s too much money for Ivan. I don’t believe that price is a true reflection of his quality.”
However, Osimhen, 25, who has a reported £112million release clause in his contract would be a better value for money for Arteta’s side.
He continued: “In my eyes, Victor’s a more complete striker than Ivan Toney. I believe his style would be better suited to Arsenal too.
“As soon as Osimhen joined Napoli from Lille, he needed six months to adapt and then after that, he became a real threat and scored a lot of goals.
“He was key to Napoli winning the Serie A title last season and for the reasons I’ve provided, I would prefer Arsenal to sign Osimhen over Ivan Toney.”

It is no secret that ARSENAL need a striker or they will not win that Premier League title – but the strikers that they desire are far too expensive and it is much more likely that the Gunners stick to what they have for now.
