Arsenal are among the clubs interested in signing Victor Osimhen this summer, but the striker will cost a lot of money.

Arsenal will have to pay Victor Osimhen £300,000-a-week wages
Victor Osimhen is one of the best strikers in the world, and he will be a wanted man this summer.
The Nigeria international was the biggest reason why Napoli won the Serie A title last season. He has had a relatively quiet campaign this time around, but nobody can deny that he’s a phenomenal talent.
It looks likely that Osimhen will leave Napoli in the summer, and a number of clubs are keen to sign him. Arsenal have been heavily linked, as are Chelsea, who also need a new striker.
Dean Jones has shared the latest on Osimhen in his report on , and he has revealed that clubs will have to break the bank to sign him.
It has been claimed that Osimhen will command wages in the region of £300,000-a-week. That would make him Arsenal’s highest-paid player if they signed him.
The striker will also cost a fortune in transfer fees. His release clause is set at £113 million (), which is more than what Arsenal paid for Declan Rice last year.
Arsenal will have to spend big on a new striker
Strikers are, on paper at least, the most valuable players in any squad.
Without elite goalscorers, it’s almost impossible to win the biggest titles, and that’s why any prolific goalscorer will cost a fortune.
Osimhen, branded as a ‘perfect‘ player for Arsenal by Micah Richards (), is definitely up there with the best strikers in the world. and any club that wants him will have to spend big – not just in transfer fees but also in wages.
Arsenal have shown in recent years that they are more than happy to pay the big bucks on players they really want. If they are keen on Osimhen, we don’t think they’ll have a problem splashing the cash.
