Eddie Nketiah wanted by Aston Villa and Norwich after Arsenal recalled whizkid from Leeds loan – The Sun

ASTON VILLA and Norwich have joined the race to land Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah on loan.

Nketiah spent the first half of the season on loan at Leeds but was recalled by the Gunners due to a lack of playing time.

Championship Bristol City were favourites to land the Arsenal and England under-21 ace.

But the Robins fear missing out after Villa earmarked Nketiah as a potential replacement for knee injury victim Wesley.

The Brazilian, signed for a club-record fee in the summer, suffered a horrible ACL injury against Burnley recently.

And Villa are desperately seeking a new forward, with Krzysztof Piatek also having been linked.

Norwich are also in the hunt for a new front-man to ease the burden on top-scorer Teemu Pukki.

And Daniel Farke could turn to Gunners youngster Nketiah.

The Canaries are also set to sign Hertha Berlin’s attacking midfielder Ondrej Duda for the rest of the season.

Nketiah made 17 appearances in the Championship for Leeds this season.
