Arsenal and Chelsea reportedly withdrew from trying to recruit Osimhen, the price set by Napoli was the main obstacle, both clubs were reluctant to pay Osimhen very expensive release clause. PSG is the only club that might be willing to recruit Osimhen at a high price. The President of Napoli and the President of PSG have reportedly held a meeting to discuss the possibility of Osimhen transfer.

Indeed, many hope that Osimhen will go to the Premier League, especially Arsenal. Arteta needs players who are sharper than Jesus and Nketiah, because they have the ambition to win the Premier League trophy next season. Chelsea already have Nkunku and Jackson, if they sign Osimhen it means Enzo Maresca will have to sacrifice one of them.

Osimhen is a decent player, but the price to pay is huge. That is why, it is very natural that Arsenal refuses to fulfill the Serie A striker's demands which I quoted from several news sources. Personally, I would love for Osimhen to join Emirates Stadium this summer. Thus, at least the Gunners have a pure striker they can rely on. However, it seems that this effort did not result in a meeting between the two parties, which made it possible for Paris Saint-Germain to submit a contract offer to Osimen and a proposal to Napoli. Apart from the news regarding Osimhen, Arsenal has another target that they might be able to bring to the Emirates, namely Benzamin Sesko. It is also rumored that Chelsea has made a contract offer to Benzamin Sesko, but it seems that Arteta will not remain silent because it is rumored that Arsenal is now prioritizing the purchase of Sesko from RB Leipzig. Reportedly after the opening offer was rejected, TeamTalk reported that Arsenal had again offered a new offer. Now, Arsenal are waiting to see what new proposal will be accepted as Leipzig maintains the striker's full release clause of £55 million. We'll see, whether Arsenal succeed in bringing in Sesko or they will target other stickers that are on their radar. As an Arsenal supporter, I hope that any striker brought to the Emirates is an ideal choice and can adapt quickly. Regarding Chelsea, I didn't really dig up any information regarding this team. but clearly, they also need an established striker rather than relying on Jackson. Even if Chelsea were interested in bringing Osimhen, apart from the expensive dowry involved, releasing several of their players would have to be done.

The thing is, the performance that Osimhen is actually showing, is actually not worth the money. I understand that he is a very important player for Napoli right now. But that does not mean any other team is going to be ready to pay anything that they ask for the player.

Yes, there are a lot of really rich clubs that might actually show a lot of interest in him and also maybe buy him for such a high price. But he is not going to be a player who will be a good value for money. I heard that some clubs which showed a lot of interest in him are actually back because of the price tag. Arsenal and Chelsea are interested. But not that much as far as we have heard. Actually, Arsenal is a little bit more interested in him compared to Chelsea. But I still think that the price tag is really high. But here's another thing, Arsenal does spend a lot of money. So is there a chance?
