Solanke completed a club-record move to Tottenham over the weekend in a deal that could rise to £65million.
Having scored 19 times for the Cherries last term, Solanke's exit has left a big whole at the Vitality Stadium.
As a result, Bournemouth are looking for a prolific striker to lead their line this term.
Nketiah is facing an uncertain future in north London after falling down the pecking order under Mikel Arteta.
The 25-year-old is a product of Arsenal’s academy and has proven himself as a first team player, making 168 appearances for the club.
Despite struggling to make himself a first team regular, the 25-year-old has scored 38 times for the Gunners, including 19 in the Premier League.
According to talkSPORT's Alex Crook, Arsenal are looking for a fee in the region of £50million to sell the striker, a figure that Simon Jordan disagrees with.
Responding to that £50million figure, Jordan said: "Ultimately if you want to get £40million, you're better off asking for £50million," he said.
"But is he worth £50million? Pfft, you've got to be joking haven't you?

"There's one thing paying for old rope but this is... you're stretching a bit far.
"He's not a £50m footballer, I mean, he's lucky to be a £30m footballer and on £100,000-a-week!"
Nketiah made his Arsenal debut in a 2017 September Europa League game and scored his first goal for the club a month later. He has also spent time on loan at Leeds, though his career highlights include scored twice for Arsenal in a 3-2 win against Man United in 2023.
