Leeds United reportedly want Eddie Nketiah of Arsenal.

Leeds United midfielder Adam Forshaw has admitted to Leeds Live that he does not know much about reported target and Arsenal forward Eddie Nketiah.

According to Sky Sports, Championship club Leeds are interested in signing Nketiah on loan from Premier League outfit Arsenal on transfer deadline day.

It has been reported that the 20-year-old forward will have his medical at the West Yorkshire outfit today.

Leeds midfielder Forshaw has admitted that he does not know much about the youngster.

Forshaw told Leeds Live about Nketiah: “Not seen anything of him. I’ve heard he’s quick, that’s all I know about him.”

Hidden gem?

Nketiah is a very good and promising young forward, but the forward is relatively unknown.

The Arsenal forward, though, could prove to be a hidden gem, and could be the player who leads the line well for Leeds to clinch automatic promotion to the Premier League.

The 20-year-old, though, will have to hit the ground running at Elland Road, especially as he will have to replace Kemar Roofe in the team.

Roofe made 28 starts and five substitute appearances in the Championship for Leeds last season, scoring 15 goals and providing two assists in the process, according to WhoScored.
