Victor Osimhen breaks silence on Arsenal transfer interest as he admits uncertainty over Napoli future | The Sun

NAPOLI forward Victor Osimhen has admitted "anything can happen" amid reports of a £51million bid from Arsenal.

The Gunners are in the hunt for a new forward or two.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang left for Barcelona in January and Alexandre Lacazette will officially re-join Lyon when his contract expires at the end of this month.

That leaves just Eddie Nketiah at the club as the only recognised striker.

According to reports in Italy, Arsenal submitted a £51m bid for Napoli forward Osimhen.

But the Serie A outfit rate the Nigeria international closer to £85m.

But the forward also admitted that "anything can happen".

Osimhen said: "I always go out on the pitch to do my best both with the national team and with my club.

"I don’t know my future, I know anything can happen, but now I just want to go on holiday with my family, clear my head and recharge my batteries.
