Arsenal has reentered negotiations with Napoli for the highly sought-after Nigerian striker, Victor Osimhen according to reports in Italy.
Previously, Paris Saint-Germain expressed a strong interest in Osimhen, proposing a deal around €90 million.

However, this offer was promptly rejected by Napoli’s president, Aurelio De Laurentiis.
Today’s edition of Corriere dello Sport reveals on page nine that both Arsenal and Chelsea have renewed discussions with Napoli in recent days.
The clubs are gathering information as they consider potential moves for Osimhen.
While Arsenal remains keen on securing Osimhen, their immediate focus is on acquiring Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting CP.
Chelsea, on the other hand, would be eager to add Osimhen to their roster, though his substantial salary and transfer costs poses a significant challenge.
