Crystal Palace are on the verge of acquiring Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah for a fee in the range of £30 million.
The Eagles have long admired the English international and previously inquired about his availability in January. However, Nketiah decided to remain at Arsenal at that time.
The deal is structured with an upfront fee of around £25 million and an additional £5 million in potential add-ons.
Nottingham Forest had previously been in advanced negotiations with Arsenal for Nketiah but ultimately withdrew from the pursuit. There was also interest from Marseille, but a move to the French club did not materialise.

Nketiah has not featured for Arsenal this season, remaining an unused substitute in their opening two Premier League matches. He has scored 38 goals in 168 games for the Gunners and is under contract until 2027.
If the transfer goes through, Nketiah would become a valuable addition to Crystal Palace’s attacking options.
His goal-scoring ability and experience could bolster the Eagles’ chances of success in the upcoming season.
