Premier League record scorer Alan Shearer revealed the club that must try to sign Nigerian goal-machine Victor Osimhen.
The lack of a top-class striker at Arsenal has been the topic of discussion for several months, and with the summer transfer window looming, the Gunners are expected to make a big splash in the market.
Mikel Arteta has rued their inability to take chances, and that lack of cutting edge in attack has seen them fall off the rails in the Premier League title race for the third season running.
Former England strikers Alan Shearer and Gary Lineker have weighed in on who they think Arsenal should sign.

Striking Gold! Expert's compelling verdict names Osimhen as transfer market's ultimate prize
A look at Super Eagles and Galatasaray's striker Victor Osimhen's remarkable numbers this season across competitions amid transfer links to Premier League giants Manchester United.
Shearer, speaking on The Rest is Football podcast, believes Victor Osimhen is the way to go.
"Victor Osimhen is there, isn't he? He would, without a doubt, score goals for them. The problem they've got now is that the whole world knows they need a forward."
Lineker, on the other hand, thinks Delap would be a great option.
"If I were them, I'd go for Delap at Ipswich. I know he's young and not entirely proven, but he's scored quite a lot of goals in the Premier League this season for a team that's obviously struggled, having been promoted."

Osimhen has been in outstanding form while on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, scoring 20 goals in 25 games this season.
The Gunners are reportedly considering multiple targets, including Newcastle's Alexander Isak and RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko.
However, Osimhen could be a more realistic target, with a reported release clause in his Napoli contract worth around £62m.
