Eddie Nketiah rejects latest Arsenal’s contract offer
<h4><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Eddie Nketiah may quit Arsenal in the January transfer window after rejecting the club&#8217;s latest contract offer, according to Metro.</span></h4>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The striker netted a hat-trick in a 5-1 EFL Cup win over Sunderland at the Emirates on Tuesday, bringing his season total to five goals in the competition.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Nketiah&#8217;s last Premier League appearance was in April, and while Mikel Arteta wants to keep him, he won&#8217;t guarantee him playing time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">As a result, Nketiah has rejected the club&#8217;s attempts to persuade him to sign a new contract, and he will be free to sign a pre-contract with overseas clubs on January 1st.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">In January, Arsenal could grudgingly cash in on Nketiah if he makes it obvious that he has no intention of signing a new contract.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Nketiah is attracting a lot of interest from German clubs, with Bayer Leverkusen and Schalke reportedly showing interest.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Nketiah recently said he is unhappy with his playing time.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">He noted he is eager to play football.</span></p>
