In a developing story, Leeds United is reportedly in talks to sign Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah on a loan deal with an option to buy this summer. The 24-year-old forward, who previously had a successful loan spell at Elland Road during the 2019-2020 season, is said to be open to the move.
Nketiah, who has struggled to secure a regular starting spot at Arsenal, could see the switch as an opportunity to gain more first-team experience and showcase his talents. Leeds United, on the other hand, are looking to bolster their attacking options ahead of the new season.
The proposed deal is believed to include an option for Leeds to make the transfer permanent at the end of the loan period. Both clubs are currently negotiating the terms, with Leeds hoping to finalize the agreement before the summer transfer window closes.
This potential signing is seen as a strategic move by Leeds United to strengthen their squad and improve their goal-scoring capabilities. Fans of both clubs will be keen to see how this story develops in the coming days.
