Arsenal was in negotiations with Marseille over Eddie Nketiah's transfer, but they failed as the French club found the Gunners' £35 million valuation too steep. Nketiah has been seeking more game time due to a lack of starting opportunities at Arsenal, where he started just ten Premier League matches last season, mainly filling in for injured players like Gabriel Jesus. With interest from Premier League clubs like Bournemouth and Crystal Palace, the stage is set for a potential bidding war.
Despite a failed move to Marseille, Eddie Nketiah remains an attractive target for several Premier League teams. His most productive season saw him score only five league goals, demonstrating the need for more opportunities elsewhere. Arsenal set their asking price at approximately £35 million, while Marseille's rejected bid of around £27 million illustrates the disparity in valuation. Teams like Bournemouth and Crystal Palace might initiate a bidding contest, which could benefit Arsenal's financial ambitions.
