Speaking to ESPN, Hislop said:
“Osimhen ticks all the boxes that Arsenal need. He provides the physicality if not a little bit more than Kai Havertz does in terms of height and setpieces.
“He provides the finishing that Gabriel Jesus promised but hasn’t delivered in the past couple of seasons.
“If I am Mikel Arteta, I am making Osimhen my number one target and then we see who else we can sell and replace and where else we can strengthen in the squad."
