Bristol City set to sign Ghanaian forward Eddie Nketiah on loan

English Championship side Bristol City are set to complete the signing Ghanaian forward Eddie Nketiah in the on-going transfer window, according to reports in the UK.

Nketia, 20, is likely to join the Robins on a season-long loan before the transfer deadline day to enhance his chances of regular playtime.

The arrival of Ivorian forward Nicolas Pepe is seen as a hindrance to his chances at the club, hence the reason for him to go out on loan.

The highly-rated youngster was one of the standout players for the Gunners in pre-season and had hopes of breaking into the first team.

According to reports, Nketiah will be having his medicals today before finalizing the loan move.

Meanwhile, Leeds United have also expressed interest in signing the forward on loan.

Last season he played nine games for Arsenal scoring just a goal.
