Lille have received multiple offers for striker Victor Osimhen. Tottenham, Liverpool and Arsenal are among the clubs interested in the Nigerian, 21. (Mail)

58 million!!! I don't know him, is he worth that?

Never seen him but his goal record isn’t mind blowing, seems like a lot of money for a guy of this level.

Just watched a video of him, still not that impressed, they included some of his misses as well!

Osimhen to Napoli was another shady deal by Lille, similar to what we went through with Pepe. Both players are completely overvalued. Napoli being open to sell would be a red flag, he hasn't even been there 2 years.

6'1ft not seen him play.

Tbh I don't think you should pay too much mind to goal scoring records, its about the profile suiting your set up, look at Salah and Mane, unrecognisible from pre-Liverpool.

Plus we're desperate, we need a body, simply anyone better than Nketiah.

Just watched his highlights and I can see why we're after him.

He is the right profile of CF, strong but still mobile, scores in the box, takes the ball well into chest, 6'1 so the minimum height I'd expect for a target CF but its a pass.

23 so in the right team he could hit his prime.

I think this could be ok, I'd expect he won't be a 20 goal striker but 12-15 would be decent with our wingers and CAM's pitching in.

He's not the finished article but if he's backed in a good encouraging environment he could be.

He could be a baby Lukaku, which is what we need.

I'd prefer him to isak cos he seems more physical. Not seen much of either though.

This guy is more physical than Isak and quicker, hes like a thin, faster Lukaku.

Edit sorry misread.

We only have a 3 goal striker at the moment, so 10 goals is an improvement.

We just need to take a punt at anyone at this stage. I'd be happy to see Mitrovic from Fulham if it meant we nick enough points to get top 4 this season. We will still need a new striker in the summer when Laca leaves.

Nope nope nope, another Lille flop please stay away.

id take him for a decent price

He'll cost close to £60m
He's a player that Wenger was tracking when the player was 18 - according the player himself.
If Wenger was looking to bring him in it's a good sign. For all Wenger's faults he could definitely spot the forward players.

He's very fast, good control of the ball and also a good header of the ball.
Seems a bit raw, though, and doesn't seem to strike the ball very well on what I have seen of him.

The problem is that Newcastle are also in for him reportedly.
