With Arsenal’s return to the prestigious UEFA Champions League on the horizon, bolstering their squad becomes imperative to contend on all fronts. Reiss Nelson has proven himself as a reliable contributor under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta in the previous campaign. Despite limited opportunities, he has showcased his prowess in the Premier League, accumulating an impressive tally of five goal contributions from a mere 202 minutes of action.
As the Gunners brace themselves for a packed fixture schedule in the upcoming season, Nelson is expected to be afforded significant playing time, potentially emerging as a key figure for Arsenal. His versatility to operate on either flank or in the central attacking midfield position adds further value to his inclusion in Arteta’s tactical plans.
