James McNicholas reports for The Athletic that Arsenal are likely to consider offers for a number of their homegrown players this summer, with Eddie Nketiah and Emile Smith Rowe contemplating their futures.

That’s in addition to the recent news that Reiss Nelson has informed Arsenal he wants to consider a transfer, with the Gunners looking to bring in as much as £20m for the winger.

With all three players, McNicholas points out that the upside of a sale is that Arsenal can record their transfers as “pure profit” in PSR terms, giving them some financial flexibility in the market.

The Telegraph reported earlier this month that Fulham have made Smith Rowe a priority signing for the summer window, and they’re ready to make an early bid for the midfielder.

Fulham boss Marco Silva is keen to bolster his attacking options, and Smith Rowe is reportedly high on the club’s recruitment agenda.

Recent reports suggested Arsenal were set to hold talks with Smith Rowe over his future, and it seems likely those conversations will conclude that an exit is for the best.

As for Nketiah, Crystal Palace reportedly admire the striker, though it remains to be seen if they’re willing or able to make an offer that Arsenal would accept.

Nketiah played 1,416 minutes for the Arsenal first team this season, whilst Smith Rowe managed just 489. That put them 16th and 20th in terms of minutes played for Mikel Arteta’s side in 2023/24.
