In the latest transfer news, Nottingham Forest are currently in discussions with Eddie Nketiah’s representatives to agree on personal terms. The Reds have made the 25-year-old Arsenal striker their top priority this summer, ahead of other targets. Forest had also been pursuing a deal for Feyenoord’s Santiago Gimenez, but were unable to meet the Dutch club’s valuation for the Mexican forward.
Earlier in the transfer window, Nketiah was linked with a move to Ligue 1 side Marseille, with the player reportedly eager to work under manager Roberto De Zerbi. However, Arsenal’s unwillingness to lower their asking price scuppered the potential transfer.
Known primarily as a penalty box poacher, Nketiah has also shown his ability to score from distance. His “sensational” hat-trick against Sheffield United last season is a clear demonstration of his lethal instinct in front of goal.
This latest development adds another layer of intrigue to Nketiah’s future, as he weighs up his options for the upcoming season. Stay tuned for more updates on this transfer saga as it unfolds.
