After receiving an offer from Marseille, Eddie Nketiah has decided on his future with Arsenal.

Eddie Nketiah, a promising young talent at Arsenal, has been the subject of transfer rumors lately. It seems that the 25-year-old striker is looking to make a move to Olympique Marseille this summer, leaving behind his current team with whom he has three years remaining on his contract.

Despite being a regular in Mikel Arteta's squad for the past two seasons, Nketiah has mostly been utilized as a substitute, starting only 10 Premier League games last season. While he has shown glimpses of his potential, his stats may not be as impressive, with only five league goals and none since his hattrick against Sheffield United last October. With top players like Kai Havertz and Gabriel Jesus ahead of him in the pecking order, and Arsenal in the market for a new striker, it was expected that Nketiah would seek a transfer from the Emirates.

Reports had emerged a few weeks ago about Marseille's interest in the young English striker, and now it seems that they have made an official move for him. According to Foot Mercato, Nketiah is convinced by the project at Marseille and contract talks between him and the club are going smoothly. The Ligue 1 side, now under the management of former Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi, have also made an initial offer to Arsenal, although its value is yet to be disclosed.

Meanwhile, another Premier League player, Tottenham's Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, is also on the verge of joining Marseille. The Danish midfielder, who made 39 appearances for Spurs last season, has agreed on personal terms with the French club, and the two teams are finalizing the deal. This could be seen as a replacement for Marseille's former captain, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who left for Al-Qadsiah earlier in the transfer window.

It remains to be seen how much Arsenal would demand for their academy graduate, who has been the target of several Premier League clubs over the past year. If Nketiah does make the move to Marseille, he would join forces with fellow young talent Mason Greenwood, who has recently joined the French club from Manchester United. With Marseille making significant moves in the transfer market, it will be interesting to see how this all pans out. Stay tuned for more updates on Arsenal's transfer news.
