Transfer: Arsenal Hold Firm on Eddie Nketiah's Valuation as Marseille's Bid Falls Short

Eddie Nketiah

Arsenal reject Olympique Marseille's €27m bid for Eddie Nketiah, holding out for €35m plus sell-on clause, as negotiations stall and OM consider alternative transfer options.

Arsenal has reaffirmed their stance on Eddie Nketiah's transfer value, rejecting Olympique Marseille's €27m proposal for the talented striker. The Gunners are adamant that Nketiah's worth exceeds the offered amount, seeking a minimum of €35m plus a sell-on clause.

Marseille's bid, revealed on Friday, failed to meet Arsenal's expectations, leaving negotiations between the clubs at a standstill. As a result, the French side may now explore alternative options to bolster their attacking lineup.

Arsenal's resolve to secure a substantial fee plus a sell-on clause demonstrates their commitment to maximizing Nketiah's value. With no agreement in sight, the future of the 24-year-old English forward remains uncertain.
