The Turkish club and the Gunners could very well do business this summer - though for Gabriel Martinelli with Gala submitting an £38million bid for the Brazil international.

As Galatasaray await a response, it is currently unclear whether Martinelli is open to making the move to Turkey.

Now, in a surprising turn of events, the Telegraph have reported that during discussions between two clubs for the 25-year-old and Ethan Nwaneri, Osimhen’s availability was brought up amid the possible scenario of Nigeria international moving to Arsenal.

However, the report states it is unclear if that was raised by Gunners sporting director Andrea Berta or whether the striker was essentially offered to the Premier League champions.

This is because, as per Sky Sports in Germany, Galatasaray have rejected a €130m (£111m) offer from Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal for Osimhen and have made clear that they have no intention of entering negotiations over the 27-year-old.

Arsenal remain keen to sign a forward before the transfer window closes next month, but manager Mikel Arteta has warned there is no guarantee it will happen.

“I think for the margins to improve, there are very few players in the market that are available to do that and bring that to the club.

“But again, we are actively looking to improve that and we're going to try.”
