It's like a joke: Arsenal still makes a big profit selling 'wooden legs'
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 equally logical move, Arsenal have decided to part ways with striker Eddie Nketiah. The English player has officially completed his move to Crystal Palace for a transfer fee of £30 million. This is a deal that is considered beneficial for both sides.
Arsenal's decision to part ways with Nketiah has sparked controversy. 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 will help 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 dangerous.
Nketiah will join other new signings 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 could 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.
