‘Not Arsenal’ – Thierry Henry warns Osimhen against potential move to Gunners

Former Arsenal striker, Thierry Henry has issued a stark warning to Victor Osimhen, against a potential move to Arsenal.

The French football legend enjoyed immense success during his time at Arsenal but believes such a move will have consequences on Osimhen’s career trajectory.

The Nigerian international has been one of the best strikers in the world for the last two years after helping Napoli to their first Serie A title in 33 years with his 26 goals in 32 appearances for the club.

The 25-year-old who recently penned a new deal keeping him at the club till 2026, has been linked with a transfer away from Naples in recent months with Chelsea and Arsenal monitoring his affairs.

Although, the North London club boasts a rich history and tradition but has struggled to reclaim its former glory in recent seasons. Henry cautioned against romanticizing the club’s past achievements.

However, Henry believes that Osimhen should prioritize joining a club where he can continue to thrive and evolve as a player and focus on his long-term career aspirations.

“I’d like to see him now, what he can do in the Premier League or wherever he’s going or Paris Saint-Germain. Not Arsenal, I won’t go there,” PulseSports quoted the Frenchman.

“I want to see him take the next step and be more consistent with his output, but to be able to win the title with Napoli the way he did will stay in history forever, so all the best to him in his career.”
