Arsenal concerned by Eddie Nketiah treatment at Leeds

Arsenal are weighing up cutting short the loan of Eddie Nketiah at Leeds United.

The Sun says the Gunners are considering cutting Nketiah's loan spell at Leeds short amid concerns over his playing time.

The 20-year-old is yet to play 90 minutes in the Championship for Leeds this season with Patrick Bamford currently Marcelo Bielsa's preferred option.

Nketiah has managed four goals in eight games for the club despite being restricted to substitute and cup appearances, and now faces an uncertain future at Elland Road.

Bristol City will be offered a second chance to sign Nketiah, having missed out on his signing in the summer, should Arsenal decide to terminate his loan at Leeds.

Arsenal have the option to recall the striker in January and will activate the clause if Leeds continue to deprive him of regular first-team action.
