Catch all the latest Arsenal news, including updates on Victor Osimhen, Liam Delap and Lucas Perez.

Arsenal are set for yet more Premier League action as they make the trip to Nottingham Forest for another huge clash.

The title race is looking increasingly tough for the Gunners to get involved in, but they could still make sure any slip from Liverpool is capitalised on.

Meanwhile, plans are being put in place for the summer transfer window, with several high-profile moves being lined up.

So with that said, here’s a look at the biggest Arsenal stories ahead of the day.

Victor Osimhen to Arsenal transfer update

Arsenal are keeping tabs on the situation surrounding the future of Victor Osimhen, Arsenal Insider understands.

The striker is currently spending the season on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli, having looked to confirm an exit from the Serie A side.

Osimhen had a release clause over the region of £100million, though that has been reported to drop by some way.

Despite that, Arsenal Insider understands a deal lower than that clause could be available ahead of the summer.

While he may not be the top target heading into the summer, Arsenal cannot be ruled out of a possible switch.

While the Gunners are looking at a possible switch, any move may well be stopped by Manchester City and Pep Guardiola.

The current Premier League champions have a buyback clause in Delap’s deal that could see him make a return to the Etihad Stadium permanently.

Lucas Perez can’t face Arsenal in Champions League clash

Arsenal transfer flop Lucas Perez has made the switch to PSV Eindhoven on a short-term deal following his exit from Deportivo La Coruna.

The striker looked set to face off against the Gunners in the Champions League, potentially haunting them in the round of 16.

However, a rule on squad registration has outlined that only three new players can be registered by February 6.

With the move going through later than that, it means Perez cannot feature against Arsenal in the next round.
