EPL: You need him – Hislop on striker Arsenal should sign if Osimhen’s transfer fails
Former Arsenal goalkeeper, Shaka Hislop, has urged the Gunners to sign Brentford’s Ivan Toney if they fail to land Victor Osimhen from Napoli.
Toney and Osimhen have been linked with a move away from Brentford and Napoli this summer transfer window.
The duo have attracted interest from Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Saudi Arabia.
“Money aside, if Arsenal could, for me, I think the best striker out there who is available is Victor Osimhen,” Hislop said (via Metro).
“I know, by all reports, he’s got his sights set elsewhere. So, okay, if he is not available, then absolutely yes, Ivan Toney.
“I think you go for him. I think that Arsenal desperately need that out-and-out striker now. Again, Ivan Toney, he is already in London, I think he ticks a whole lot of boxes for both club and player.”
