Eddie Nketiah completed a season-long loan move to Leeds United on deadline day as the Whites replaced the loss of Kemar Roofe with the Arsenal youngster – and Ian Wright sent the Gunners young gun a message on Instagram.
Nketiah, 20, joins Marcelo Bielsa’s side with enormous pedigree. Indeed, the striker has shone in the Gunners’ Under-23 side, scoring 28 goals in 38 games. He has even netted twice in four England Under-21 caps.
The pacy striker has even clocked up three senior appearances for Arsenal, scoring in the Premier League against Burnley and twice in the Carabao Cup against Norwich City. He has plenty of pedigree.
Indeed, Arsenal legend Wright sent a message to striker Nketiah on Instagram after the youngster posted confirmation of his move, stating that he cannot wait to get started for the Championship promotion hopefuls.

Leeds lost Kemar Roofe to Anderlecht for a fee of £7million, as Vincent Kompany’s side took advantage of the striker entering the final 12 months of his contract at Elland Road. It left Leeds with just Patrick Bamford up front.
Arsenal legend Wright reacted to the news that Nketiah had left Arsenal to join Leeds on loan for the 2019-20 campaign, and the Gunners icon and Match of the Day pundit reckons it is a good move for Leeds and Nketiah.
