Arsenal man has rejected Newcastle to remain at the Emirates

Reiss Nelson is on the verge of signing a fresh contract with Arsenal, as the club has successfully convinced him to extend his tenure with them.

The talented winger was expected to leave Arsenal at the conclusion of the previous season, as his existing contract was set to expire.

This situation attracted the interest of several clubs, who engaged in talks to acquire him as a free agent.

Newcastle United and AC Milan made late attempts to secure the services of the promising winger, with Nelson reportedly turning down at least one contract offer from Arsenal.

However, according to Shields Gazette, he is now poised to prolong his stay with the Gunners after reaching an agreement on the terms of a new contract under the guidance of manager Mikel Arteta.

Just Arsenal Opinion

Keeping Nelson can be considered a major win for us because the Englishman remains one player we can rely on.

He has struggled for regular game time recently but is still young enough to become a top player for us.

If he stays fit and does well in pre-season, he might become one of our key men in the upcoming season and that should be enough reason for him to be very motivated to do well.

  1. Reiss Nelson has had so many chances to prove his worth, but failed to deliver. The same applies to ANM. I fell Just they will be better off in the long run seeking greener pastures outside of the Emirates. Not being too ruthless, just honest.

    ESR could be in the same position too if he fails to deliver this season.

      1. The No: 10 shirt too heavy for ESR. If he doesn’t step up to the plate this season, he will be history.

  2. We’ve been on this matter for too long! Let’s get it done already please. It makes a lot of sense. If in future he doesn’t hit the appropriate levels at Arsenal, the club can always flog him out for some good cash rather than lose him now for nothing.

  3. The first thing come to mind when I hear the name Reiss Nelson is the Boumemouth classic.

    Am one of those that don’t take pleasure being critical of Arsenal players.
    We have reportedly agreed a new contract with the Hale end graduate.

    Apart from the Bournmouth classic Nelson did had a bright impact when he played during the season, offering a directness and ability to get behind whether playing on the left or the right.

    However, Nelson only played a few times in the league, and a further few times in the Europa league. That doesn’t argue well for someone who can come in and start for Saka or Martinelli.
    The two started practically every game in the last campaign, which will likely not be feasible in the next campaign, as the increase in competitive takes hold.

    The question, then, is if Nelson can take some of those minutes.

  4. I could go either way on Nelson. That said, it would not be bad business in my mind to retain him on a new contract, but keep the wages within reason, otherwise the option to move him on next season becomes more difficult.

  5. If only Reece Nelson had had the opportunities to play that Pepe had, you would see how good he really is.But he did’nt cost £72 million.
