Former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit has praised Victor Osimhen for his potential to bolster the Gunners' attacking options. Petit, speaking to a British sports journalist and presenter, suggested Osimhen as an alternative to Julián Alvarez, who is reportedly valued at £100 million. Petit emphasized that Osimhen and Alvarez possess different qualities, but noted that the Nigerian forward could bring a significant physical presence to the final third for Arsenal.
"Next one for Arsenal then is Victor Osimhen at £100 million. They are different players. Not the same quality as Alvarez, but he will bring a powerful presence up front," Petit stated. The former France international also highlighted Osimhen's pace, fighting spirit, and strong personality, which could prove advantageous for the team.
Osimhen, known for his pace, strength, and ability to exploit space, would provide Arsenal with a fresh option in the attack, complementing the club's potential pursuit of other forwards like Boniface.
