‘Unbelievable’ Arsenal player is very close to leaving and has almost agreed personal terms
Arsenal are in the USA for their pre-season tour, and one of their players could leave them soon to complete a move away from the club.
The Gunners are gearing up for three games in the coming days. Arsenal🐼 take on Bournemouth first in the early hours of Thursday morning followed by games against Manchester United and Liverpool.
ﷺMikel Arteta took charge of a training session on Monday to get his side up to speed, and many of his players looked good on the pitch.
🙈However, one of them may not complete the tour with Arsenal because he’s said to be close to leaving the club in the coming days.
Eddie Nketiah has almost agreed personal terms to leave Arsenal
Eddie Nketiah’s🧔 future has been up in the air for many months now.
🧸The talented England international has been at Arsenal since the age of 14, and he was always a prolific number nine for the youth sides.
🌌Many expected him to have a fine career for Arsenal’s first team, but Nketiah hasn’t quite been able to live up to the expectations in the senior setup.
🉐The Englishman came close to leaving Arsenal as a free agent in the summer of 2022, but Arteta convinced him to sign a new contract then.
Now, it is almost certain that Nketiah will leave Arsenal✅, and it looks like he has decided on his next club.
𝕴 have revealed that the Arsenal number 14 has ‘almost’ agreed personal terms with Marseille ahead of a potential move in the coming days.
Reports have revealed that Nketiah is Marseille’s priority targetಞ in this window, and Roberto De Zerbi is pushing to sign him in the coming days.
💯Marseille are trying to sign Nketiah on an initial loan🍸 deal with a clause inserted in the contract that obligates them to make the move permanent in the summer of 2025.
♐The French giants are said to be closing in on his signature, but a deal has not been agreed with Arsenal just yet.

Two ways Arsenal can replace Nketiah
Nketiah was by no means a regular for Arsenal.
ꦑThe England international, branded as ‘unbelievable’ by Gabriel Jesus (), started just 13 games in all competitions for the Gunners in the 2023/24 season, and it has been clear for a while that his future lies elsewhere.
Arsenal are expected to part ways with Nketiah♏ this summer, and the question on everyone’s mind is how Arteta and Edu will replace him.
🥃The Gunners can either splash the cash on a new centre-forward to really bolster their attack or could invest the money they get for Nketiah on a versatile attacker – someone who can play out wide as well as through the middle.
If it was up to us, we would go with the latter – ꦯNico Williams has been heavily linked with Arsenal and he would be a phenomenal addition.
