Arsenal torn between Osimhen and Martinez
Reports claim Osimhen has been 'scouted extensively' by the Gunners as they weigh up their options before the transfer window swings open at the end of the season.
Arsenal are reportedly keeping tabs on two of Europe's hottest strikers, Lautaro Martinez and Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen - and neither is expected to come cheap.
The Gunners may have to fend off interest from local rivals Tottenham when it comes to the former and a host of potential suitors for the latter.
Tottenham were heavily linked with Inter Milan's Martinez last summer before Chelsea splashed £98million on his team-mate and strike partner, Romelu Lukaku.
The Argentine could reunite with former boss Antonio Conte at Spurs, but Arsenal have also placed him on their hit list.
CBS Sports claim that he and Napoli frontman Osimhen have been 'scouted extensively' by the Gunners as they weigh up their options before the transfer window swings open at the end of the season.
The duo have been added to the long-admired trio of Jonathan David, Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Alexander Isak as transfer options up top.
Manager Mikel Arteta is likely to be handed funds to improve the squad in his own image after an impressive season at the helm. He is reportedly keen on strikers with a rare blend of youth and top-level experience, criteria which the duo in question slot into comfortably.
Osimhen is a year younger at 23 and has already surpassed 10 league goals for the fourth consecutive season. Napoli shelled out almost £70m to sign him back in 2020, so it would presumably set Arsenal back a pretty penny if they were to lure him away this summer.
