Since the beginning of the season, the young striker has scored nine goals in ten appearances.
Arsenal defeated Leeds United 2.1 thanks to two goals from the striker, as the North London side continued their quest for a place in the European Champions League for the next season.
Ahead of the World Cup, Nketiah had discussions with the Ghanaian delegation about the possibility of switching from England to Ghana.
Furthermore, Arsenal midfielder Thomas Partey has urged the young attacker to represent Ghana in the World Cup in Russia.
Ghanaian attackers are now suffering with their form, with players such as Jordan Ayew unable to live up to the high expectations placed on him in the Premier League.
Nketiah, on the other hand, has put in some incredible minutes for the Gunners since getting into the starting lineup last season.
Arsenal have beaten teams such as Manchester United, Chelsea, West Ham, and now Leeds United as a result of the forward’s efforts.
Based on his speed, enthusiasm, and ability to connect up with his teammates, Nketiah has certain characteristics with Ghanaian all-time leading scorer Asamoah Gyan.
The legend has all of the characteristics necessary for a contemporary striker to perform at his peak. Eddie has been displaying some glimpses of the abilities Gyan had.
The attacker did not rule out the prospect of representing Ghana in the World Cup, despite the fact that he was fully focused on Arsenal until the last game of the Premier League campaign.
If Nketiah accepts Ghana’s offer, he has the potential to emerge as the next big thing in the Black Stars camp at the World Cup in Qatar this summer.
Nketiah, in the same way that Gyan and Boateng helped Ghana return to the World Cup in 2010, has the potential to assist Ghana return to the World Cup this year.
He has a lot of supplies in front of the goal. Ghanian fans will be hopeful for his inclusion into the team since he has shown time and time again that he is capable of filling the void left by Gyan.
