Wolves join race to sign talented Arsenal star Mikel Arteta loves
Wolves have joined three other Premier League clubs in pursuit of the talented Arsenal star who could leave at the end of the season
Eddie Nketiah, an Arsenal forward, is one of many players set to depart the Emirates Stadium at the conclusion of the season and is being watched by a number of Premier League teams this summer.
Wolves are reportedly in the running to recruit the gifted striker from Arsenal and are monitoring his circumstances in North London, according to TEAMtalk.
Arsenal has granted the 24-year-old permission to look for possibilities elsewhere. He has been on the outskirts under Mikel Arteta this season. Nketiah’s chances of seeing a lot of playing time at the Emirates Stadium seem remote, as the Gunners are considering possible additions to their striker lineup.
Since November, Nketiah has struggled to secure a starting spot in the Premier League lineup, with Arteta favouring other options such as Kai Havertz, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus. Despite his desire to fight for his place at Arsenal, the club’s focus on raising funds for new signings could prompt his departure.
Crystal Palace, Fulham, and Brentford have all previously expressed interest in Nketiah, and now Wolves have joined the race for his signature. Manager Gary O’Neil is keen to bolster his attacking options, particularly with Matheus Cunha and Hwang Hee-chan facing injury concerns this season.
Despite Nketiah’s contract with Arsenal running until 2027, his agents are actively exploring potential destinations for him this summer. While staying at Arsenal remains a possibility, a move away from North London could offer him more playing time and opportunities for career progression.
Nketiah, capped once by England, boasts an impressive record of 38 goals in 164 appearances for Arsenal since his senior debut in 2017. His proven ability in the Premier League makes him an attractive prospect for clubs seeking attacking reinforcements, with Wolves potentially benefiting from his services if a deal can be reached when the summer transfer window opens in June.
