Napoli star forward Victor Osimhen is waiting to hear from Arsenal this summer, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Nigerian striker believes that he is ready for a move to the Premier League in the coming weeks.

He has been previously linked with a move to Chelsea, but their interest in the 25-year-old appears to have cooled due to financial issues.

However, the Italian club is certain that Arsenal, who will have to sell players before moving for the striker, will come in with a mega bid.

Osimhen is tied to Napoli until the summer 2026, and his release clause is reportedly set at £113m.
