Arsenal attacker Eddie Nketiah is reportedly a target for Crystal Palace, who want to sign the striker for £10m.

According to the Athletic, the south London side are keen on the 22-year-old forward and are willing to offer £10m for the striker. However, Arsenal are seeking £20m for the England U-21 captain.

Nketiah has just one year remaining on his current contract and is expected to leave Arsenal this window. The attacker has not played a single minute of Premier League football this season due to injury.

Indeed, the forward has been unable to cement a regular starting spot under Mikel Arteta. And as per the Athletic, Nketiah has turned down an offer to extend his contract with Arsenal.

And Palace could be a good destination for Nketiah. The attacker has impressed when given a regular run of games at senior level. And under Patrick Vieira, the youngster could thrive.

Whilst the Gunners want £20m for Nketiah, Arsenal fans on social media are hoping the club undersell the forward to Palace to recoup some funds for the final days on the transfer window.
