Arsenal, contenders for the Premier League title, are considering a potential move for Samu Omorodion, a striker eligible to represent Nigeria, in the upcoming summer transfer window.
Omorodion gained prominence earlier in the season with his debut senior goal for Granada against Atletico Madrid, prompting interest from Atletico who loaned him to Granada despite his limited top-flight experience.
With a commendable record of eight goals in 29 appearances for Granada, the 19-year-old striker has attracted attention, especially due to uncertainty over his playing time upon his return to Atletico Madrid.
Reportedly, both West Ham and Arsenal have shown interest in Omorodion, who holds dual nationality, while Liverpool has also emerged as a potential suitor.
Valued at $40 million by Transfermarkt, Omorodion's decision may hinge on the assurance of regular playing time, particularly if coach Diego Simeone can offer such assurances at Atletico Madrid next season.
Born in Spain to Nigerian parents, Omorodion represents Spain at the youth level but remains eligible to switch allegiance to Nigeria, adding an additional layer of complexity to his potential transfer.
