As reported on Thursday, Lens has turned down Olympique de Marseille’s second offer for Elye Wahi (see yesterday’s news at 8:47pm). As a result, the club has decided to return to the fray for Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah (25 years old, 27 appearances and 5 goals in the Premier League for the 2023-2024 season).
Negotiations have resumed and the London club has indicated its new demands to its Marseille counterpart, The Athletic reports. Once they have received €35 million for a transfer, the Gunners will be allowed to part ways with the Englishman as part of a bonus with an obligation to pay €30 million. According to RMC, OM is not ready to accept the price and discussions are flowing.
