Marseille are reportedly interested in acquiring Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah as they seek to strengthen their attacking options for the upcoming season.

The club is already on the verge of finalizing a deal for Manchester United's Mason Greenwood, with plans to pair him with Nketiah in a formidable new attacking duo.

The potential addition of Nketiah comes as Marseille prepares for the departure of last season's top scorer, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is expected to join Saudi Pro League side Al Qadsiah.

This move would leave a significant gap in Marseille's forward line, which they hope Nketiah can fill.

Nketiah, despite scoring crucial goals for Arsenal, has struggled for consistent playing time due to competition from Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz, and Leandro Trossard.

A move to Marseille could offer the 25-year-old a more prominent role and the opportunity to lead the line.

Marseille's interest in Nketiah is part of a broader strategy to revamp their squad after finishing eighth in Ligue 1 last season, missing out on European qualification.

The club reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Europa League but aims to challenge for a top-four finish in the domestic league next season.

By securing Nketiah and Greenwood, Marseille hopes to build a dynamic and effective attack that can propel them back into European contention and improve their standing in Ligue 1.
