It's like a joke: Arsenal still makes a big profit selling its 'wooden leg'
After many seasons with Emirates, striker Eddie Nketiah officially said goodbye to Arsenal to join Crystal Palace.
Nketiah leaves Arsenal, opens new chapter at Crystal Palace
In a surprising but no less reasonable development, Arsenal has decided to part ways with striker Eddie Nketiah. The English player has officially completed the transfer procedure to Crystal Palace with a transfer fee of 30 million pounds. This is a deal that is considered beneficial for both sides.
Arsenal's decision to part ways with Nketiah has been controversial. However, looking at the big picture, it's a sensible move for the Gunners. With the arrival of quality new signings like Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz, Nketiah's playing opportunities have become limited. In addition, the English striker's inconsistent form has also prevented him from competing for a regular place in the squad.
Selling Nketiah helps Arsenal earn a significant amount of money, while also creating opportunities for other young players to play and show themselves.
Crystal Palace: The personnel revolution continues
Crystal Palace are in the process of rejuvenating their squad and Nketiah is one of the quality signings they have brought in. With the appearance of the English striker, The Eagles' attack will become more diverse and more dangerous.
Nketiah will join other new recruits such as Ismaila Sarr and Daichi Kamada to form a young and talented attacking trio. This promises to bring a breath of fresh air to Crystal Palace's playing style.
Nketiah: New opportunities, new challenges
At Crystal Palace, Nketiah will have more opportunities to show his ability. He will play regularly and can play an important role in Oliver Glasner's team. However, to succeed at Selhurst Park, Nketiah will need to overcome new challenges. He will need to adapt quickly to the new team's style of play and compete with other players for a place in the first team.
