Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen has refused to be drawn into speculation linking him with a move to Arsenal, insisting that his immediate priority is to concentrate on his work while the transfer window remains open.
The Nigerian forward has been the subject of renewed transfer rumours, with Arsenal reportedly among the clubs being linked with a possible move for the prolific striker.
However, Osimhen has played down the speculation, making it clear that he is not allowing the reports to distract him from his current responsibilities.
Speaking on the transfer rumours, Osimhen said: “I’m only focusing on my work.
These kinds of things happen during the transfer window, and I don’t know what will happen after that.
” I’m here and focusing on my work, and when the time comes, we’ll see and think about what will come later.”
The statement suggests that the striker is leaving the door open to whatever may happen before the transfer window closes, while deliberately avoiding making any commitment regarding his future.
Osimhen’s comments are likely to fuel further speculation over his next destination, particularly with top European clubs continuing to monitor his situation.
Arsenal’s interest, if it develops into a formal approach, could become one of the major storylines of the ongoing transfer window.
For now, however, the Nigerian international appears determined to keep his attention on football rather than the growing transfer noise surrounding him.
The striker has established himself as one of Africa’s leading forwards, and his goalscoring record and physical qualities have made him an attractive target for major European clubs.
With the transfer window still open, Osimhen’s future remains uncertain.
But his latest comments indicate that he is prepared to let events take their course rather than allow speculation about Arsenal or any other club to affect his current focus.
For Arsenal, any potential move for the Nigerian would represent a significant addition to their attacking options.
But until there is an official development, Osimhen’s message remains clear: his focus is on his work, while decisions about his future will be made when the time comes.
