Arsenal are set to compete with Chelsea for the signing of Napoli striker Victor Osimhen during the summer transfer window.
The Gunners are expected to sign a marquee centre-forward at the end of the campaign and Osimhen has been identified as a top target.
Caught Offside claim that the north London giants will open talks with the player's representatives soon to discuss a possible transfer.
However, the Gunners won't be alone in the pursuit and could face competition from the Blues, who are also long-term admirers.
The west London outfit were keen on bringing Osimhen to the Premier League last summer, but could not convince him in the end.
Osimhen was reluctant to accept a big pay-cut to join the Blues and it remains to be seen whether the club will meet his demands this time.
The striker will reportedly have a release clause worth £63m in his contract. It will become active when the Serie A transfer window reopens.
