Former Arsenal star, Kevin Campbell has urged the Gunners to sign Napoli attacker, Victor Osimhen amid the player’s recent fall-out with his club.
Arsenal are reportedly looking to sign a new striker in the January transfer window and have been strongly linked to Brentford’s Ivan Toney.
However, Campbell thinks Mikel Arteta’s side could get Osimhen if they wait until the end of the season.
“What Osimhen would cost, it would be ground-breaking,” Campbell told Sky Sports.
“But it is just like anything, isn’t it? “If you want to be that side and you want that style of play, that type of player, you’ve got to pay the money.
“Obviously with Champions League money now coming in, Arsenal might be in with a shout of signing Osimhen next summer.”
Osimhen has scored 62 goals and provided 15 assists across 107 games for Napoli.
The Nigerian international helped Napoli lift the Serie A title last season.
His future at Napoli now appears to be up in the air amid a nasty fall-out.
The 24-year-old could be set to leave amid reported interest from Premier League clubs.
