Victor Osimhen's future at Napoli remains uncertain despite signing a contract extension last December.

The 25-year-old Super Eagles striker has been courted by top European clubs after his impressive performance last season, where he helped Napoli win their first Scudetto title in 33 years.

With 78 goals and 18 assists in 132 appearances, Osimhen has become a hot commodity, with Chelsea, Arsenal, and Manchester United rumored to be interested in his services.

However, none have made a concrete offer. Recent reports suggest Arsenal are taking the lead, sending officials to Italy to negotiate a potential transfer.

Napoli is demanding a hefty €120 million for their prized asset, and Arsenal is considering a creative solution.

They may offer Brazilian international Gabriel Jesus as part of the deal to reduce the price.

Jesus has struggled with fitness issues this season, leading Mikel Arteta to deploy Kai Havertz as a false nine.
