The Lagos native has been the subject of intense transfer speculation throughout this off-season. The 25-year-old has informed Napoli of his desire to leave the club, but so far there has been no substantial movement pertaining to a potential transfer.
Paris Saint-Germain seemed his likeliest destination after he was rumoured to have agreed personal terms with the French club, but talks stalled after they also wanted to include Gli Azzurri's other attacking talisman Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the mooted deal.
Chelsea were next in line as far as being Osimhen's potential new club after a move to PSG seemingly came to a halt, but that switch has also seemingly come to a standstill with the Super Eagles star said to not be eager on a loan move or a cut to his current salary.
According to Corriere dello Sport, these circumstances combined have paved the way for Arsenal to re-enter the picture for the Nigeria international.
The 2022/23 Serie A winner has been a target for the Gunners for a number of years now, and with Napoli seemingly willing to drop their previous €130 million (R2.5 billion) asking price to €100 million (R1.9 billion), it is claimed that the north Londoners could make a move for the striker.
The same report states that Napoli are desperate to part ways with the attacker in an effort to make signings of their own, most notably that of Romelu Lukaku as manager Antonio Conte wants to be reunited with the Belgian he previously worked with at Inter Milan.

Notably, Arsenal are seemingly on the verge of parting ways with Eddie Nketiah, potentially paving the way for Osimhen to make his way to the Emirates Stadium.
