Eddie Nketiah ready to leave Arsenal

Eddie Nketiah is preparing to leave Arsenal before tomorrow's transfer deadline.

The Guardian says Nketiah could follow fellow academy graduate Joe Willock out of the Emirates exit door amid interest from Crystal Palace.

Nketiah is yet to make an appearance for Arsenal this season after falling out of favour under manager Mikel Arteta but it is thought that the Gunners may consider lowering their original £20m asking price for the striker to a more affordable £12m.

The 22-year-old has entered the final 12 months of his current Arsenal contract and is rumoured to have rejected an offer to extend his stay in north London.

Though Nketiah has attracted interest from a number of Bundesliga sides, he reportedly favours staying in the Premier League.
