SESKO V OSIMHEN

Frankly if I was given the choice between these two and factoring in the cost of the transfer and wages I would opt for Sesko.

Osimhen is I am sure a very good player, but his goalscoring performance last season was very similar to Havertz. He is not for me a game changer and his costs are frankly prohibitive.

Sesko scored last season a similar number of goals in Bundesliga. If the reports are accurate his

transfer fee and wages will be significantly less.

More importantly if Sesko joins the club he will arrive initially as a replacement for Nketiah and/or

competing for starting lineup place with Havertz.

On the other hand if Osimhen comes to the club he would need to be guaranteed a starting place

in the team.

Osimhen's cost would also impact on Arsenal's transfer business in strengthening the team and

squad.

I do not consider him a strategic buy or good value for the £105 million + wages that he is likely to cost.

If you are spending money on that scale you want an upgrade and/or match winner.
