Arsenal revive interest in Victor Osimhen with €100m bid

Published on: 22 August 2024

English Premier League outfit, Arsenal have re-entered the race to sign Napoli striker Victor Osimhen, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.

The London based club are prepared to pay €100m for the in-demand Nigerian international.

Osimhen, who signed a new contract in December 2023, has a €130m release clause, but with no club meeting that valuation, Napoli are yet to receive a satisfactory offer.

Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea have shown interest, with the latter considering a bid separate from their negotiations for Romelu Lukaku.

Arsenal's proposed €100m bid falls short of the release clause, but may be enough to persuade Napoli to sell, allowing them to invest in new signings.

Osimhen's future remains uncertain, with the Partenopei eager to resolve his situation.
