Arsenal could revive their interest in signing Napoli striker Victor Osimhen in the coming days, according to Gianluca Di Marzio.

The Gunners have made just one new addition to the squad in Riccardo Calafiori this summer, but they are likely to be busy soon.

The club are actively working on a deal to bring midfielder Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad. They will make a formal bid next week.

Meanwhile, a new centre-forward could also be pursued depending on the future of Eddie Nketiah, who is attracting interest from Marseille.

Marseille are close to reaching an agreement for the Gunners graduate. Should he head for the exit door, Arsenal could line up a new marksman.

Arsenal have no stand-out targets at the moment, but Gianluca Di Marzio claims that they could return for the services of Osimhen.

Osimhen has been left out of Napoli's Coppa Italia first round game against Modena. The club are expected him to leave in the next 20 days.

No side has shown willingness to trigger the €130m release clause in his contract. Arsenal could sign him for a discount before the deadline.
