ARSENAL star claims he wants to leave Arsenal because he is "extraordinary." Arsenal's star player wants out
Eddie Nketiah's departure from Arsenal was unavoidable for the majority of the season, but not in recent weeks.
The 22-year-old has come from nowhere to become an integral part of Arsenal's squad.
Alexandre Lacazette had kept him out almost constantly since Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's January departure, but Nketiah, a Hale End foundation graduate, got an intriguing opportunity in the visit to Chelsea in April and repaid Mikel Arteta by scoring twice.
Furthermore, at the end of last week, at home to Leeds United, the England Under-21 international got himself another superb assist, putting the Gunners on the verge of Champions League qualification at the time.
Everyone understands that the player himself is out of contract this late spring, and Mikel Arteta has repeatedly stated his confidence that Nketiah will sign another contract.
Eddie Nketiah's departure from Arsenal has been a foregone conclusion for the majority of the season, but not in recent weeks.
The 22-year-old has come from nowhere to become an important player for Arsenal.
Following Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's January departure, Alexandre Lacazette had kept him on the bench almost constantly, However, Nketiah, a Hale End Institute graduate, took advantage of an interesting opportunity during a visit to Chelsea in April and repaid Mikel Arteta by scoring twice.

Everyone understands that the player himself is out of contract this late spring, and Mikel Arteta has repeatedly stated his optimism that Nketiah will sign another contract.
Nonetheless, with Newcastle United and West Ham United linked, Glenn Hoddle said before Thursday's 3-0 loss at Tottenham Hotspur, which saw the North Londoners slip one point behind their nearest rivals in fourth, revealed that he accepts the player must leave the Emirates Stadium.
"I think he likely needs to leave Arsenal, but assuming he's given an opportunity, he'll stay," he told Premier League Productions ahead of the North London derby. They'll get down on their knees to persuade him to sign an agreement."
EDDIE NKETIAH IS LEAVING ARSENAL.
Unfortunately for the Gunners and Arteta.
The Spanish manager adores the young striker, whom he describes as 'unprecedented' in 2020.
The problem is that if Arteta truly believed in him, he would have used him much more frequently prior to his heroics at Stamford Bridge a month ago.
Nketiah presumably does not feel all that esteemed by the Emirates Stadium club and leaving remains entirely plausible.
