Arsenal want to sign Victor Osimhen and the Napoli striker smashed a ridiculous four goals in a 10-0 win for Nigeria on Monday.
International games are still going on all over the world and Nigeria enjoyed quite the game on Monday.
Taking on Sao Tome and Principe in an Africa Cup of Nations qualifier, Nigeria racked up the goals in a stunning victory.
Nigeria were only 3-0 up at half time but went goal crazy in the second half – including five goals in just 17 minutes – to win 10-0.
The star of the show as Napoli hitman Osimhen as he scored four times to give Nigeria their staggering win.
Arsenal want to sign Victor Osimhen
It’s no great secret that Arsenal need to sign a new striker this summer.
Alexandre Lacazette has left the club for an emotional return to Lyon whilst Eddie Nketiah hasn’t yet signed his new contract.
Even if Nketiah stays, Arsenal clearly need another striker if they are to really challenge for the top four next season.
One of the top targets for Arsenal is Osimhen after seeing him produce a superb season over in Italy.
Osimhen racked up 14 goals in 27 Serie A games whilst also scoring four times in five Europa League outings.
The 23-year-old looks primed for stardom over the years to come and Arsenal may hope to lure him to North London.
Italian newspaper Il Mattino have claimed in recent days that Arsenal have offered €60million (£51million) for Osimhen.
Napoli rejected that offer and don’t want to sell for anything short of €100million (£85million) this summer.
Arsenal will therefore have to come up with a much, much better offer if they are to have real hope of bringing Osimhen to the Emirates Stadium.
Scoring four against Sao Tome and Principe is maybe expected from a player like Osimhen, but seeing him smash in goals for fun is exactly why Arsenal are keen.
