Eddie Nketiah’s eventful summer continues. Once expected at Olympique de Marseille, he ultimately did not join the Marseille club following high financial demands from Arsenal. More recently, it was Nottingham Forest who showed an interest in the 25-year-old centre-forward. But as indicated The Athleticthe transfer will not happen. While the two Premier League clubs have found common ground for a transfer of 35.3 million euros, Forest have not reached an agreement with Nketiah.
However, this refusal has not changed the plans of the player and the club. His departure from Arsenal is still planned. Furthermore, The Athletic reports that Crystal Palace are considering a move for the 1-time England international. Palace bosses Eagles had already spoken with the Gunners early summer for Nketiah. It remains to be seen whether the player is inclined to join Oliver Glasner’s team, which already has Jean-Philippe Mateta and Odsonne Édouard in his position.
