Arsenal will make one final attempt to convince out-of-contract striker Eddie Nketiah to stay at the club beyond the summer, according to a report.

Arsenal will make one final attempt to convince striker Eddie Nketiah to stay at the club beyond the summer, according to a report.

The 22-year-old's contract expires in June, and has so far rejected numerous contract extensions offered to him by the North London club.

Nketiah is seeking reassurances over his first-team opportunities at the Emirates Stadium, particularly if the Gunners decide to sign Gabriel Jesus from Manchester City, as has been reported recently.

However, after previously struggling to nail down a regular first-team spot in the Arsenal side, the striker has gone on to make four consecutive starts since leading the line at Southampton back in April.

Due to his upturn in opportunities and form, the Daily Mail are reporting that the Arsenal hierarchy will make one last effort to convince Nketiah to sign a new deal in order to extend his stay.

Although, the report outlines how Nketiah is said to be holding out until the end of the campaign to discuss his future, with several clubs said to be interested in acquiring his signature on a free transfer deal once the season comes to a close, including Crystal Palace.

After recently featuring in the Arsenal starting lineup, the England Under-21s international has gone on to make 17 Premier League appearances so far this season, scoring two goals, which both arrived in the recent 4-2 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
