BREAKING NEWS LIVE: Arsenal move for world class striker tipped after transfer request, with Man City’s reign under threat

BREAKING NEWS LIVE: Arsenal move

Arsenal have been backed to re-enter the frame for Napoli striker Victor Osimhen after the player submitted a transfer request, and a former Arsenal Invincible has detailed what the frontman would bring and how he’d fit at the Emirates.

The Gunners came within a whisker of lifting their first Premier League title since the 2004 last season. Unfortunately for Mikel Arteta and co. Manchester City did not falter down the stretch and held their nerve to secure their fourth EPL title in a row and sixth title in seven years.

Arsenal are determined to go one better following their near miss and are slowly but surely strengthening each department of their team in the transfer market.

David Raya has completed a permanent move worth £27m to become Arsenal’s undisputed No 1 goalkeeper.

Riccardo Calafiori has bolstered what was already the Premier League’s meanest defence.

Mikel Merino has agreed personal terms with Arsenal on a four-year deal. Martin Zubimendi’s rejection of Liverpool has heightened Arsenal’s chances of signing the Real Sociedad man given the Spanish side will now retain Zubimendi
