Arsenal are being linked with a whole host of strikers at the moment.

The Gunners are clearly in the market for a new centre-forward, and a number of options are being touted and discussed.

One player who has long been linked with a move to the Emirates is Victor Osimhen.

The striker has been linked to Arsenal for ages now, but according to Team News and Ticks, speaking on Inside Arsenal, a lot of the chat around Osimhen has died down.

The insider says that he was told in November that Osimhen is a primary target for Arsenal, but since then, all of his sources have stopped talking about the £100m man potentially coming to the Emirates.

Arsenal sources have stopped talking about Victor Osimhen

The insider shared what he has and hasn’t been hearing about Osimhen.

“I was told in November that Osimhen is our primary target as a striker. I didn’t believe it to be honest , I couldn’t see it, but others said it towards the end of November and I thought there was something in it,” He said.

“I can honestly say I’ve not heard his name mentioned since from any of my contacts. I don’t know what happened there to go from being the primary target to nothing at all.”

Osimhen has less options

Victor Osimhen may not have that many options open to him this summer.

Chelsea have apparently dropped their interest in the striker, and now, Arsenal seem to be less keen than they once were.

PSG have also been linked, so that is one to keep an eye on, but other than that, it looks like Osimhen may not have too many options.

Osimhen was once one of the most-coveted players on the planet, but now, interest in the Napoli striker seems to have died down a bit.

The £100m man may not end up in the Premier League after years of speculation.
