Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Gbubemi Ojogwu popularly known as Odumodublvck, has promised to become an Arsenal season ticket holder if the Gunners succeed in signing Victor Osimhen, according to Soccernet.ng.
Although Osimhen only joined Galatasaray from Napoli last summer, speculation regarding his future has not ended. The Super Eagles star has been consistently linked with Europe’s elite clubs in recent months.
Before the Istanbul derby, reports emerged that several top European teams—including Arsenal, Manchester United, and Real Madrid—had sent scouts to monitor Osimhen and other standout performers.
Also, sections of the Turkish media reported that Arsenal's sporting director, Andrea Berta, was spotted at Rams Park. These have fueled serious speculation that the Gunners are preparing a move for the Nigerian talisman.
A pursuit of Osimhen is logical at this stage. The 27-year-old striker was heavily linked with North London last summer; however, Arsenal signed Viktor Gyökeres from Sporting CP instead.
Unfortunately, the Swedish forward has struggled to remain consistent. Despite an average return of 18 goals in 48 appearances, his overall efficiency has been questioned.
If Arsenal finish the season without silverware, a squad overhaul is expected, and adding Osimhen to the frontline can definitely not be ruled out.
Odumodublvck Reacts to Victor Osimhen and Arsenal Rumors
As the links between Arsenal and Osimhen continue, Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has expressed his enthusiasm for the potential transfer. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), he wrote:
”If Osimhen go Arsenal, I go be season ticket holder. God punish devil.”
The Afrobeat star is well known for his hit single “Declan Rice,” which was used to unveil the English midfielder following his British-record move from West Ham to Arsenal in 2023.
Odumodublvck is a football enthusiast, frequently sharing his takes on the Super Eagles, Barcelona, Manchester United, and Arsenal on social media and even visiting Premier League stadiums to watch games.
While it remains to be seen if the Gunners will act on the rumours this summer, the move holds weight.
Although Osimhen has usually expressed his appreciation and love for Galatasaray, the allure of a Premier League giant like Arsenal would be difficult to ignore.
However, it might be difficult for a deal to suffice. Galatasaray are unwilling to entertain offers below €100 million, and the striker’s substantial wage demands could further complicate negotiations.
