Former Arsenal star Perry Groves says the Gunners should sign Victor Osimhen in a ‘heartbeat’.
Mikel Arteta is desperate for a prolific centre-forward. However, Groves does not think top target Alexander Isak is attainable.
“In a heartbeat,” the former midfielder told talkSPORT about Arsenal potentially signing Osimhen.
“You ain’t gonna get Isak because Newcastle, even though they had a bad result on the weekend, they’re still looking to see if they can get into the Champions League, so they’re not going to get Isak.
“So, if it means you pay over the odds or if you take a player on loan, any centre-forward at the top level, Coisty (fellow pundit Ally McCoist), you’d be licking your lips thinking, ‘I tell you what, I could make a massive difference to that Arsenal side.’”
Osimhen has spent the first half of the season on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, scoring 11 goals in 14 appearances in the Turkish top-flight.
