Arsenal open to Reiss Nelson exit before window shuts

Reiss Nelson could still leave Arsenal before Friday night's transfer deadline, Football Insider reports.

The 24-year-old Englishman has seen his playing time limited at Arsenal in recent years. Reiss Nelson, who is rated at around £25m, had reportedly informed the club earlier this summer of his intention to explore a potential transfer.

Several Premier League clubs, including Leicester, West Ham & Crystal Palace, have all shown an interest in signing Nelson this summer.

A potential transfer away from Arsenal doesn't appear to be close as things stand, but Football Insider claims that the Gunners will not block a late exit for Reiss Nelson.

The site also suggests that Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta still rate Nelson & will give him first-team opportunities if he were to stay put.
