Arsenal value Eddie Nketiah at £30m as Marseille continue their attempts to seal a move for the England striker.
The Gunners academy product is a primary target for Marseille and the two clubs have opened talks over a potential deal.
The Ligue 1 side want to structure a deal far lower than their £30m valuation and will need Arsenal to be flexible. Talks over an agreement are ongoing, but Marseille’s current offer has been deemed too low.
The Gunners will allow Nketiah to leave to play regular first team football after finding his game on time limited last season.
Meanwhile, Marseille are also monitoring the situation of Fulham midfielder Andreas Pereira.
