Arsenal have made a blistering start to this summer's transfer window, signing Kai Havertz from Chelsea and getting set to close deals for West Ham captain Declan Rice and Ajax man Jurrien Timber.
After leading the way in the Premier League for much of last season before falling away in catastrophic fashion, Mikel Arteta has prioritised improvements on all fronts to avoid a repeat.
Osimhen to Arsenal?
Victor Osimhen is the first African player in the 125-year history of the Italian top-flight to win the Serie A Golden Boot.

UK Television personality, Arsenal fan, and highly controversial figure, Piers Morgan has said the Gunners must sign Super Eagles and Napoli striker Victor Osimhen to stand any chance of winning the big trophies next season.
It’s brilliant that Arsenal seem to have won the race to sign @_DeclanRice who will be a monstrously good addition to the team. But if we want to win big trophies, we also need a world-class striker who will score 25+ goals a season. I’d break the bank for @victorosimhen9 #afc pic.twitter.com/tDPqNB6tl4

Osimhen was instrumental as Napoli won the Scudetto last season, winning the Golden Boot and ending the season with 31 goals in all competitions.
The 24-year-old is one of the most lethal strikers in world football and will certainly elevate Arsenal's attacking play to the next level.
Whether or not Arsenal make the move remains to be seen but it would certainly be exciting to see the masked goal-machine delight the Emirates crowd next season.
