Victor Osimhen’s Possible Move to Arsenal Instead of Chelsea in EPL

According to reports from The Athletic, Napoli striker Victor Osimhen is likely to choose Arsenal over Chelsea in the upcoming transfer window in the English Premier League.

The deciding factor for Osimhen’s potential move is believed to be the opportunity to play in the prestigious Champions League, a competition he aspires to participate in.

It is understood that Osimhen has a strong desire to feature in Europe’s top club competition, giving Arsenal an advantage over Chelsea, who are unlikely to qualify for the tournament until 2025/2026.

Osimhen, who is expected to depart from the Serie A champions this summer, recently inked a contract extension with Napoli, which includes a release clause of approximately £112 million.

Notably, influential figures such as Didier Drogba and John Obi-Mikel are actively engaging with Osimhen in an attempt to sway his decision in favor of Chelsea.
