Arteta and Edu told possible £86M Arsenal signing ‘better all-rounder’ than Haaland

Rumoured Arsenal target Victor Osimhen has been rated a better all-round striker than Erling Haaland.

It is no secret that Arsenal are still in need of adding another striker to the attack – and were heavily linked with a move for Osimhen in the summer – but failed to make a move as they did not want to pay his massive £70 million asking price

However – there is no doubt that Mikel Arteta still wants to add to his attack this transfer window and many media outlets believe that they could reignite their interest in Osimhen.

But Napoli will demand a fee of £88 million for their star man and will not let him depart the club for anything else

However – amid the speculation – Ex-Hull City and Russia manager Leonid Slutsky believes Napoli’s Osimhen is a “higher-level, long-term player” than Manchester City goal machine Haaland.

Slutsky told the Comment Show on YouTube: “It is difficult to say who will score more. The leagues are different.

“In England, it’s probably harder to score in general than in Italy. But Manchester City may be easier to score for than Napoli.

“It is difficult to say who will score more. The leagues are

“Osimhen, it seems to me, has a cleaner game. For me, in terms of a set of qualities, he surpasses Haaland.”

Gunners legend Ray Parlour recently encouraged the Gunners to add a striker to the squad as Eddie Nketiah is not enough – he told TalkSport: “they need a backup striker in case Gabriel Jesus gets injured.

‘I know they’ve got Eddie Nketiah but sometimes you need the extra striker who’s going to get you the goals to win the league.’
