Corriere dello Sport reports that the Emirates is Osimhen’s most favored destination via The Boot Room, and not Stamford Bridge.

Osimhen was said to be moving to PSG with Kylian Mbappe having exited Parc des Princes.

The Gunners could also turn to their Brazilian frontman, Gabriel Jesus, who lost his starting spot to his German teammate towards the backend of the previous season.

Amid these circumstances, the north Londoners would love to have a big, imposing striker, such as Osimhen.

They will be expected to challenge for the Premier League this year as well after finishing second behind Manchester City two seasons in a row.
