Arsenal have reportedly received a transfer approach for one of their forgotten players.
The Gunners have sealed Noni Madueke’s £52million capture from city rivals Chelsea in one of the most controversial moves of the window.
And Madueke’s arrival at Emirates Stadium would push Reiss Nelson even further down the pecking order at the club.
Nelson spent last season on loan at Fulham but his spell at Craven Cottage was ruined by injury.
The winger pulled his hamstring in early December and did not play again for the rest of the season as a result.
However, as reported by BBC Sport, Fulham are eager to re-sign Nelson, with a loan move the most likely scenario.
Nelson has two years remaining on his contract but his future appears to lie away from Arsenal.
Last season Nelson made 12 appearances for Fulham and scored two goals.
The hamstring problem saw Nelson’s season come to an early end but he has since returned to training with Arsenal.
Nelson has scored eight goals in 90 senior games for Arsenal and previously had loan spells at Feyenoord and Hoffenheim.
In 2023 Nelson scored a memorable late equaliser for Arsenal against Bournemouth and went on to sign a new contract that summer.
A product of Arsenal’s academy, he was very highly rated as a youth player and made his senior debut in 2017 when Arsene Wenger was still in charge.
Nelson hasn’t been able to establish himself as a regular in the starting lineup for Arsenal, with injuries and the continued progress of Bukayo Saka not helping his cause.
It has been a very quiet transfer window so far for Fulham, who have yet to buy or sell any senior players this summer.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have already secured the signings of Martin Zubimendi, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Christian Norgaard, and Madueke.
The Gunners are also looking to sign Sporting forward Viktor Gyokeres and are edging closer to sealing a £62.4m deal.
