William Gallas, a former Arsenal player, has urged Mikel Arteta to make a big move to sign Victor Osimhen.
Osimhen was a hot cake for top European teams last summer but failed to make a big move during the transfer window.
The likes of Chelsea, PSG, Arsenal and other teams were pushed away by the huge demands from Napoli.
The Super Eagles striker then made a season loan move to Galatasaray, where he has hit the ground running.

Gallas wants Osimhen at Arsenal
Gallas has asked his former team to take Osimhen away from Galatasaray when the transfer window opens in January.
William Gallas told Goal, “If I could sign one player for Arsenal in January, it would be a world-class striker...
“I wanted to speak about Osimhen because I know he’s at Galatasaray, and I still don’t understand why he’s there. That’s the type of profile Arsenal needs.
“They need a player with that pedigree. Maybe he won’t score 20 goals in the season, but he will scare defenders, he will give them a hard time, and that will give the opportunity for players around him to score goals.”
Osimhen has led Okan Buruk's team to an unbeaten run in the league with six goals and four assists in six league games for Galatasaray.
The Super Eagles striker also scored a brace in Galatasaray’s 3-2 win against Samsunspor before the international break.
