Former West Ham United goalkeeper, Shaka Hislop has advised manager Mikel Arteta to make Super Eagles attacker Victor Osimhen his number one signing this summer transfer window.
Osimhen has been linked with Arsenal Paris Saint-Germain and Chelsea this summer.
The 25-year-old will leave Napoli this summer for a new club .
Speaking to ESPN FC about Arsenal’s summer transfer plans, Hislop said:
“He [Osimhen] ticks all the boxes that Arsenal need. He provides the physicality if not a little bit more than Kai Havertz does in terms of height and setpieces.
“He provides the finishing that Gabriel Jesus promised but hasn’t delivered in the past couple of seasons.
“If I am Mikel Arteta, I am making Osimhen my number one target and then we see who else we can sell and replace and where else we can strengthen in the squad.
“But without question, the first order of business is that style of finisher and I think Osimhen ticks all the boxes that Arsenal need.”
