Arsenal legend and ex-Patrick Vieira teammate is against Eddie Nketiah Crystal Palace transfer

Former Arsenal player Emmanuel Petit says Eddie Nketiah should stay at the Emirates this summer despite being linked with a move away from north London.

The Frenchman, who made 116 appearances for the Gunners and won the Premier League and FA Cup during his time at the club, said he thinks Nketiah would be better off sticking with manager Mikel Arteta and improving his game alongside Emile Smith Rowe, Gabriel Martinelli and Bukayo Saka.

Nketiah has been a bit-part player for Arsenal this season, initially getting most of his game time in the Carabao Cup where he scored five goals in five appearances, including a hat-trick in the quarter-finals against Sunderland. In the Premier League, he has regularly been used as a substitute until recently, making his first league start of the season against Southampton in April and remaining in the team since.
