The 25-year-old has been tipped to leave the Gunners in the current transfer window with the club eyeing a marquee striker addition.

Marseille have made the first move for him and it is reported that they have proposed a loan deal with an obligation to buy next summer.

The value of the proposal remains undisclosed, but Nketiah is reportedly open to joining the French outfit to play regular first-team football.

He is close to agreeing personal terms with Roberto De Zerbi's side, who have already signed a couple of players from the Premier League.

Mason Greenwood was purchased from Manchester United last week. The club have now confirmed the arrival of Pierre- Emile Hojbjerg from Spurs.

Nketiah is currently with Arsenal for their pre-season tour of the United States. Any deal for him could be delayed until the Gunners return.
