Bookmakers have tipped Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah to complete a loan move to join Bristol City, not Nottingham Forest, in the coming days.
Nketiah's future is set to be resolved imminently , with Forest chasing the Arsenal ace.
The Gunners striker was recalled by Arsenal at the start of the January transfer window after spending the first half of the season on loan at Leeds United.
However, he managed only two Championship starts, scoring three goals in 19 total appearances.
And with another move rumoured to be in the offing, bookmakers are now taking bets on who his next club will be with eleventh placed Bristol City (2/1) the favourites to land his signature.
Forest are next in the betting (3/1).
Third favourites, Sheffield Wednesday are 4/1, with Aston Villa (5/1), Fulham (12/1) and Wigan Athletic (9/1) make up the list.
Speaking on Thursday, Arsenal boss Arteta confirmed the striker would be leaving in the coming days.
“I always suggest when you go on loan, you speak to the manager and make sure he really wants you," Arteta explained when discussing how he will decide where to send both Nketiah, Tyreece John-Jules and Emile Smith Rowe.
"He has to tell you exactly what he’s expecting from you. If he convinces you that it’s the right move for you, you have to go and prove yourself.
"So I’m not too concerned whether it’s Premier League or Championship, it’s more the overall fit and the communication between the clubs that is clear what we are trying for that player to develop.
"We want the player to be comfortable and that he can see the path is the right one.”
