How would he fit at Arsenal?
Based on our recent games we can see that Lacazette is being played as a striker and is using he ability to hold the ball to then play the ball to our other attackers. I can see Osimhen playing in this role. He is better than Laca in this role aswell

this is because, unlike Lacazette, Osimhen is tall and strong so he will be able to do a hold up play better than Lacazette and with the Premier Leagues tall and strong centre backs Osimhen will have a much better chance than Lacazette. As well as his hold up play he is very fast
which can make him an issue for opposing defenders. With his strength and pace it is difficult for defenders to get the ball after he gets goalside of them where he can have a clear break to shoot or pass. He is also a good target man in the box, and with Saka and Pepe being good
at crossing the ball, he will being good and getting on the end of the cross and then shooting, heading or offloading it to another player.
Victor Osimhen is used to being relied on by Lille and is a consistent starter striker and main striker for the French side. This means
Victor Osimhen is used to being relied on by Lille and is a consistent starter striker and main striker for the French side. This means
that he is used to the pressure of being a starting stiker. So if he did join Arsenal he wouldn't have to adapt as much to the pressure of being our main striker.
How much will he cost?
According to transfermarkt he was valued at around 20 to 25 mil in December 2019, with this I can imagine that Arsenal would need to spend somthing like 30 million to sign him or 35 million max.

Should we sign him?
Yes, I think we should sign him, with the likelihood of Auba leaving and Laca's poor form and doubt over his future, he will be a good signing and replacement. At his young age of 21 he has shown great ability and has 18 g/a in Ligue Une and will get better.
