Nelson, who has been a standout performer for Arsenal this season, has registered three goals and two assists in all competitions. His impressive performances have not gone unnoticed, with several European clubs reportedly keeping an eye on the winger.

Despite interest from other clubs, Arsenal remains committed to securing the future of their talented youngster, who has been with the club since the age of nine. Nelson’s last-minute winner in Arsenal’s 3-2 victory over Bournemouth this season served as a reminder of his potential and importance to the team.

Negotiations are said to be ongoing, and the Gunners are hoping to secure a deal that will keep Nelson at the club for years to come.

With his pace, skill, and versatility, the young Englishman has a bright future ahead of him, and Arsenal will undoubtedly be keen to play a major role in his development.
