The negotiations between Ligue 1 “heavyweights” and Nketiah’s representatives are progressing well, with an agreement on the player’s contract on the horizon. Intrigued by the club’s sporting project, the Englishman is eager to take his career to France.
Former Brighton & Hove Albion manager De Zerbi, who has a strong understanding of the English market, has expressed interest in players like Hee-chan and Nketiah. If Nketiah is signed, the “aggressive” striker could bring a ruthless edge to Marseille’s forward line.
Kai Havertz’s arrival from Chelsea in the summer of 2024 has resulted in reduced playing time for Nketiah. The Hale End graduate has only started 13 games in all competitions and has been relegated to a bench role.
In addition, rumors of a potential move for the sensation Arsenal player have left fans fuming. Arsenal have rejected bids for a midfielder with a “killer instinct” as suitors continue to show interest.
