Ghana target Eddie Nketiah has reportedly agreed a new long-term contract to stay at Arsenal after turning down multiple bids.
The 23-year-old’s contract was due to expire at the end of the month, but the striker is said to have signed a contract until the summer of 2027.
Although, with speculation still surrounding the arrival of Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City, he may face a battle to start matches once again next season.
Several clubs were interested in signing Nketiah including Newcastle United, West Ham United and Liverpool.
Nketiah scored twice in their 2-1 win over 10-man Leeds United in the English Premier League on Sunday, taking his goal tally to four in 18 league games this season.
He started the last seven games for the Gunners after previously struggling for minutes under Arteta.
The highly-rated forward scored twice against Chelsea, put up an incredible display in their wins over Manchester United and West Ham, and a starring role against Leeds.
He made 28 appearances for Arsenal last season, scored 10 goals and provided one assist in the process.
Nketiah will be a superb depth player for the Gunners next season, especially with Arsenal competing in the UEFA Europa League.
