Premier League giants Arsenal are reportedly set to rival Chelsea for Victor Osimhen's signature.

The Standard reports that the Gunners are considering a potential move for the Napoli Starman.

According to the Independent, the Gunners see the African Player of the Year as the solution to their attacking issues.

The Super Eagles striker have been linked with a move to the Emirates in the past before Mikel Arteta signed Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City.

Despite the Gunners interest in the former Lille attacker, a release clause worth a huge £120m makes a January move almost impossible as Arsenal seek to comply with FFP rules.

Osimhen has managed 8 goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances for the Serie A champions this season.
