Arsenal Ready To Match 100 Million Euros Release Clause For Osihmen
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Victor Osimhen is poised to join Arsenal, as noted by Italian journalist Ciro Venerato, who reports that the Premier League powerhouse is preparing to submit a €100 million offer for the Nigerian striker. This falls €30 million short of the release clause stipulated in his recent contract with Napoli.
Napoli’s president, Aurelio De Laurentiis, has emphasized that they will only consider offers that meet or exceed the release clause, which surpasses Arsenal’s current transfer record of £105 million paid for Declan Rice last summer. Despite this, Arsenal aims to negotiate a deal for a more moderate fee, approximately €100 million or £85 million. Venerato stated, “[Arsenal] will attempt to secure the Nigerian [who aspires to play in the Premier League], but not by meeting the exorbitant clause amount, rather a reduced sum. Napoli will need to carefully assess the situation.”
Initially targeting RB Leipzig’s Benjamin Sesko, who recently reaffirmed his commitment to the club for another year, Arsenal is now exploring alternative options to bolster their attacking prowess and contend with Manchester City in their pursuit of a long-awaited Premier League title.

Following Sesko’s decision to stay put, Arsenal has turned their attention to Girona’s Artem Dovbyk, the leading goal scorer in La Liga last season with 24 goals. However, rumblings from Italy hint at a potential blockbuster signing—enter Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen, who has expressed his eagerness for a fresh challenge, harbors ambitions of gracing the Premier League. His impressive track record, highlighted by 26 league goals in the 2022–23 season that propelled Napoli to their first Serie A title since 1990, positions him as a highly desirable target for Arsenal.
The Gunners are not the only suitors; Chelsea and PSG have also displayed interest, particularly with PSG seeking to fill the void left by Kylian Mbappe’s departure to Real Madrid.


At 25, Osimhen is entering his peak years and has demonstrated his capability in leading a team to success. His acquisition could potentially serve as the catalyst for Arsenal to dethrone Manchester City and reclaim the Premier League trophy for North London.
Nevertheless, there are inherent risks involved. The financial investment is substantial, and in the event of a failed deal or Osimhen struggling to adapt to the Premier League, Arsenal could find themselves in a precarious position. Furthermore, with competition from other clubs like Chelsea and PSG, Arsenal must act swiftly and decisively.
