Emile Smith Rowe: Transfer Target for Crystal Palace and Fulham
Emile Smith Rowe is attracting significant interest from Crystal Palace and Fulham. After Fulham’s £30m offer was turned down, Crystal Palace is preparing an official bid for the 23-year-old Arsenal playmaker. Smith Rowe, who has struggled with injuries but remains a top talent from Arsenal’s academy, is frustrated by his limited playing opportunities under Mikel Arteta.
Edie Nketiah and Marseille’s Interest
Marseille is closely monitoring Eddie Nketiah’s situation at Arsenal. Nketiah, who has had limited Premier League starts, is on Marseille’s radar as they aim to partner him with newly signed Mason Greenwood. With Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang moving on, Marseille sees potential in Nketiah’s scoring ability, demonstrated by key goals and a notable hat-trick last season.
Arsenal’s Potential Departures
Arsenal is facing potential departures beyond Smith Rowe and Nketiah. Teenager Chido Obi Martin is set to leave after rejecting a contract extension, drawing interest from Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Bayern Munich. This could be part of Arsenal’s plan to fund new recruits for the summer.
