It is claimed that the reigning Serie A champions have identified Jesus as part of a three-man shortlist to replace Victor Osimhen if the Nigerian departs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Osimhen is yet to decide on signing a new contract with the Naples outfit. The 24-year-old has just two years remaining on his current deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><span>A failure to convince the 24-year-old to pen fresh terms before next season could risk Napoli seeing him run down his contract in its final year. The Italian giants would then lose one of their most lucrative assets for free.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>But they might be able to complete a stunning swap deal with Arsenal after their three-man shortlist emerged. According to Italian publication Calciomercato, Arsenal star Jesus has been earmarked as a possible replacement for Osimhen, alongside Atletico Madrid\u2019s Alvaro Morata and Lille\u2019s Jonathan David.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p> <strong> READ MORE: <\/strong> <strong>Arsenal&#8217;s Bukayo Saka told Grealish and Walker to &#8216;shut up&#8217; over title dig[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5000617.jpg?r=1696796423157\"><\/p>\n<p>But Napoli do not need to worry about their other targets as they could offer Osimhen in a player-exchange deal for Jesus instead. Arsenal are desperate to sign an elite centre-forward having seen their attackers struggle in front of goal over the last few years.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Osimhen would be a major upgrade on Arsenal\u2019s current options for the position. Jesus\u2019s inconsistent form and injuries since his \u00a345m switch from Manchester City in 2022 has frustrated fans. Eddie Nketiah has also struggled for regular goals when he has been given opportunities.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Signing Osimhen would help Arsenal properly challenge City and Liverpool for the Premier League title. Every champion in recent memory has possessed a forward who scores regularly &#8211; a profile Arsenal lack, with Bukayo Saka shouldering much of the burden last season.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mikel Arteta does not quite agree, believing that sharing the goals around is also important. The Spaniard does not want to sign a new striker in January, but could possibly be tempted by a move for Osimhen if the Napoli star becomes available.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you&#8217;ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
