Currently the hottest news is after Chelsea withdrew from the hunt for Osimhen. It looks like it's Arsenal's turn to try to get Osimhen from Napoli. And I think it's a very good option if Osimhen can go to Arsenal. Even though Arsenal already has several great players in their attack line, the team does not yet have a great bomber who can score more goals for the team. And we can see the proof that no Arsenal player was able to get close to the top 5 top scorers last season. Arsenal tends to have goals scored evenly by its players in the attack line. And there are no players who are truly specialized in being bombers in their attack line. So if Osimhen comes there, maybe Osimhen can be a bomber there.
But the problem is that the price of Osimhen is quite expensive. So Arsenal will definitely have a hard time getting him. But perhaps Napoli would be interested if Arsenal proposed a player swap add-on to the deal.
Indeed, Arteta really needs quality attacking players in Arsenal's front line. Because so far this is the only weakness that Arsenal has. Namely not having a spearhead who can really be expected to be the best finisher in scoring goals.

Well, the problem may be that the price that Napoli will offer is always quite high, even last season many teams withdrew because of Osimhen's high price at that time. And it could be that this season the same thing happens. but you are right that adding a player swap to the deal would probably increase Arsenal's chances of getting Osimhen. Namely Napoli could lower Osimhen's price if they perhaps get some of the players they also need. And it is reported that Napoli is quite interested in two players from Arsenal, namely Takehiro Tomiyasu and Emile Smith Rowe. But another problem is that Napoli's new coach could want to keep Osimhen who is really needed there.
