Arsenal are hopeful over their chances of committing Eddie Nketiah to a new long-term contract, Daily Mail reports.
The Gunners graduate has struggled for regular game time this campaign, but he has started the last two Premier League matches.
Nketiah was the stand-out performer against Chelsea in midweek with two goals, but it is still uncertain where his future could lie.
His current deal with the Gunners expires at the end of the campaign, and he has yet to negotiate terms over a possible extension.
Borussia Monchengladbach and Crystal Palace are keen on landing him on a free transfer, but the Gunners have not given up yet.
Gunners boss Mikel Arteta recently said that he has not had the courage to play Nketiah regularly, and the striker proved him wrong.
He has constantly revealed his desire to keep Nketiah, but it remains to be seen whether the 22-year-old is convinced to stay put.
Regardless of what happens with Nketiah's situation, the Gunners are widely expected to pursue a marquee centre-forward this summer.
