Arsenal have reportedly decided to accept the bid from Crystal Palace for Eddie Nketiah. The Gunners are keen on selling the striker and were in talks with Nottingham Forest.

As per a report by David Ornstein on The Athletic, Arsenal are set to agree a £30 million deal with Crystal Palace. The Eagles are set to pay £25 million with £5 million in add-ons for the 25-year-old.

Nottingham Forest had also made a similar bid to sign the striker earlier this month. However, talks between the two clubs broke down, similar to when Marseille were interested in signing the Englishman.
