Napoli reject Arsenal 60 million euro bid for Osimhen

There is much talk of the Osimhen situation in Italy. The Nigerian is considered to be a fundamental piece in Napoli's current plans. However, Arsenal are keen on taking him away from the Italians.

So much so, that the Gunners have launched their transfer efforts with a 60 million euro bid for the player. However, the Italian side firmly rejected this.

According to 'Ill Mattino', Osimhen will only be leaving the club for 100 million euros. This figure will no doubt ward Arsenal off from further attempts to sign the forward, and the North London club will have to turn their attentions elsewhere. For example, Gabriel Jesus' name has been mentioned in recent weeks.

Osimhen's performances in the 2021/22 season have brought the Premier League interest, but he still has three years left on his contract in Italy and Napoli hope to keep him for the duration of it.

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal are looking for a proven goalscorer after seeing both Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette leave his side in recent months.
