“Man United Is a Better Fit for Osimhen Than Arsenal” – Gallas
Former Chelsea defender William Gallas has weighed in on Victor Osimhen’s next possible move, saying Manchester United might be a better fit for the Nigerian striker than Arsenal.
Gallas explained that while Osimhen is a solid Premier League prospect, United can offer him more time to settle in, unlike Arsenal, who are under pressure to deliver silverware immediately. He pointed to Cristiano Ronaldo’s early days at Old Trafford as a reference, noting that the Portuguese star took time to find his feet before becoming a standout performer.
Osimhen has been a hot topic in the transfer market, with Premier League giants like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester United reportedly interested, especially after his issues with Napoli. Despite all the buzz, the striker ended up sealing a loan move to Turkish side Galatasaray for the season.
With the current campaign winding down, talks about his Premier League switch are back in full swing.
While speaking to Prime Casino, Gallas acknowledged Osimhen’s strengths—his ability to stretch defences, create space, and his hunger to learn. But he also warned that the adjustment period could take time.
“Premier League players often need that first season to understand the game here,” Gallas said. “Even Ronaldo wasn’t the Ronaldo we know today when he first arrived. It was the second season that showed his true potential.”
He added that Arsenal, given their title ambitions, can’t afford to be patient with a new striker who may take time to adapt. In contrast, Manchester United aren’t chasing the league title right now, which means they could give Osimhen the space to grow without too much pressure.
Nigerian politician Peter Obi reacts to the viral incident that occurred in Delta State.
It can be noted that Obi is reacting to the clip of a police officer shooting and killing an already restrained suspect.
Obi stated that it was a serious violation and abuse of power “The extrajudicial killing of a young Nigerian in Effurun, Delta State, by a police officer, Mr. Mene Ogidi, is not only barbaric but also a grave violation of the rule of law.
“Over time, human society has moved away from an era when lives could be taken without consequence. Through the evolution of civilisation, a fundamental principle has emerged: no one should be punished or deprived of life without due process and a fair determination of guilt.”
It has been reported that a four-year ban has been placed on Chelsea’s player, Mykhailo Mudryk, for anti-doping violations.
The player appealed in court on February 25 but has now been handed his punishment, which is a four-year ban from football.
It can be recalled that his last appearance on the field was on November 28, 2024.
