Eddie Nketiah, an England international striker, is being asked by Arsenal for £30 million during the January transfer window, as reported by the Daily Star.
Prior to the second half of 2023–24, the Gunners aim to strengthen their attacking lineup, and they have their sights set on Dominic Solanke of Bournemouth and Ivan Toney of Brentford
Nketiah will be permitted to leave the North London team in order for Arsenal to balance the books, provided that a deal for either attacker is completed.
The Hale End academy graduate is wanted by Crystal Palace, and if the Gunners make it known that he is available for hire, other teams may bid for his signature.But if Nketiah were to leave Emirates Stadium, Arsenal would like a sell-on clause to be included in the deal.
It’s true that Nketiah (5) hasn’t scored as many Premier League goals at Arsenal this season as Bukayo Saka (6), but Toney is unquestionably an improvement above him.
As he gets ready to finally play again later this month after serving his suspension, the Bees star, who scored 20 league goals the previous season, scored a hat-trick for Brentford B in a friendly this past weekend.
With 19 Premier League games played so far this season, Solanke has 12 league goals. If acquired, he would immediately enhance Arsenal’s assault.
The Gunners may have to make due with Nketiah and Gabriel Jesus’ services until the summer, though, as it is unclear if the Cherries or Brentford are willing to make deals for some of their most key players this month given their current league standings.
