Fabrizio Romano has claimed that one Arsenal player could leave the club at the end of this season.
The Gunners are still on top of the Premier League table.
Mikel Arteta‘s side picked up a hugely important win in the North London derby on Sunday, but that victory does not guarantee anything.
Manchester City are still the favourites to win the title thanks to their game in hand, and that shows there’s still a big gap between the two teams.
Arsenal are expected to be very active in the upcoming summer transfer window, and they are likely to sign a new forward to bolster their attack.
Before that, Arsenal may have to let a few of their own players go, and Romano has now shared an update on one of them.
Fabrizio Romano delivers update on future of Arsenal’s Eddie Nketiah
Eddie Nketiah has been at Arsenal since his early teens.
The Englishman was released by Chelsea years ago, at the same time as Declan Rice. The Gunners snapped him up then.
Nketiah was always a prolific striker at youth level, and everyone expected him to make a good career for himself when he broke into the senior setup.
However, at Arsenal, the striker is behind Kai Havertz, Gabriel Jesus and perhaps even Leandro Trossard in the pecking order.
That has increased the speculation about his future, and multiple clubs, including Crystal Palace, have been linked with a move to sign him this summer.
Romano has now shared the latest on Nketiah’s future.
The journalist has revealed that there is a ‘concrete possibility’ that the 24-year-old will leave Arsenal once the transfer window opens this summer.
He wrote in his Daily Briefing: “Eddie Nketiah – I think there’s a concrete possibility that he could move on, and he’s always had plenty of interest from clubs in the Premier League and the Bundesliga.
“In the past, we’ve seen interest from West Ham, Crystal Palace and Borussia Monchengladbach, now let’s see if any teams will make a proposal this summer, but for sure it’s a possibility for Nketiah to make way as Arsenal are looking for a potential new addition up front, while they also have Gabriel Jesus, as well as Kai Havertz and Leandro Trossard who can also play there.”
Arsenal could use Nketiah in a swap deal
Eddie Nketiah does not have a future at Arsenal.
The Englishman is a very good player and has the ability to score goals for most clubs. However, for the way Arsenal play and with the number of players ahead of him, he just doesn’t fit.
Nketiah, who has been hailed as ‘unbelievable‘ in training by Gabriel Jesus (HaytersTV), is wanted by Crystal Palace, and the Eagles have been admirers of him for a long time.
It won’t be easy, but there could be a possibility to offer Nketiah plus cash to Palace in exchange for Michael Olise, a player who has been heavily linked with a move to Arsenal.
That would be a great move for all parties involved.
