£30m player is ‘tired of his situation at Arsenal’ and wants to leave immediately

One Arsenal player could be on his way out of the club very soon.

The Gunners have done well in this window so far. They’ve turned David Raya’s loan into a permanent deal and have also brought in Riccardo Calafiori from Bologna.

Furthermore, Arsenal have made some very good money by selling Emile Smith Rowe to Fulham, but the Englishman won’t be the last significant sale in this window.

Another Arsenal player is pushing to leave the Emirates Stadium, and if a report is to be believed, there is a chance he will get his wish in the coming days.

Eddie Nketiah to Marseille latest as Arsenal star is ‘tired’

Eddie Nketiah’s future has been up in the air since the summer transfer window opened.

The talented Englishman has been at Arsenal for over a decade having joined the club’s academy when he was just 14 years old.

Nketiah was always a star for the youth teams, but for one reason or another, he just hasn’t been prolific for the senior sides.

All signs point towards the striker leaving the Emirates in this summer’s transfer window, and reports have claimed that Arsenal are demanding £30 million for Nketiah plus a sell-on clause.

Marseille have so far struggled to meet Edu Gaspar’s demands, but things could change as we head into the final three weeks of the window.

Foot Mercato have revealed that Arsenal have softened their stance on Nketiah and are being ‘more reasonable’ with their demands.

The report also claims that the Gunners number 14 is ‘tired of his situation at Arsenal’ and is ready to join Marseille. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s advice has convinced Nketiah to move to France.

The ball is now in Marseille’s court, and it remains to be seen if they will come back in and meet Arsenal’s new demands.

Arsenal should make risky Nketiah decision

The summer transfer window ends in just over three weeks’ time, so there isn’t an awful lot of time left for clubs to complete their business.

Arsenal haven’t made any attacking signings yet in this window, and it looks like they will have to move players like Eddie Nketiah and/or Reiss Nelson on before they can address that issue.

That’s why many fans want Arsenal to accept Marseille’s bid for Nketiah and let him go, but we think Edu should risk it and wait for another week.

The striker domino in the Premier League hasn’t yet begun, and we think a number of clubs in England will be interested in Nketiah later in the window.

That could help Arsenal make some more money on the Hale End graduate, which makes it worth the risk.
