We do know Marseille are interested [in Nketiah]. Their initial offer a few weeks ago was effectively laughed at by Arsenal. That offer had such a massive gap to Arsenal's valuation, so big in fact that we didn't know whether Arsenal were expecting Marseille to come back in.
Eddie Nketiah needs to leave Arsenal for a starting role. Both Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus are ahead of him in the pecking order for the Gunners, and instead of another season on the bench, a move away from the club is what he should be looking for.
We think the offer that has gone in now is around 17m. Now, that still may not be as much as what Arsenal would want, but it is enough for them to at least continue the conversation. So the fact that the two clubs are still talking would imply that there is a possibility that a deal can be done there.
