Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson is ‘attracting interest from the likes of AC Milan, Fulham and West Ham’, with the 23-year-old out of contract this summer and yet to agree a new deal at the Emirates
A number of European clubs are interested in ‘bringing in Arsenal’s Reiss Nelson’ if he fails to agree a new deal with the club.
The 23-year-old winger has played a bit-part role this season and made just eight Premier League appearances, all of which have come off the bench.
He did provide fans with a season highlight, though, with a 97th minute winner against Bournemouth in March.
Nelson’s current contract will be up this summer, and he is not believed to have agreed a new deal.
It seems the winger will not be without suitors if he does leave north London, with the Evening Standard reporting interest from the likes of AC Milan, Fulham, West Ham and Brighton.

They also report that Nelson, who came through the Gunners academy and has been an Arsenal player since he was eight years old, wants to stay at the club despite his lack of play time.
He said in November that he was ‘very comfortable at the club’ and keen to extend hos contract.
MIkel Arteta’s side are expected to invest heavily in the upcoming transfer window as they prepare for a return to Champions League football.
West Ham midfielder Declan Rice is believed to be a top target, though they will likely face competition from the likes of Manchester United and Liverpool, while Bayer Leverkusen forward Moussa Diaby is also on their radar.
Folarin Balogun, who has impressed at Reims this season while on loan from Arsenal, is expected to be sold amid interest from AC Milan.

Scottish fullback Kieran Tierney could also be among those to leave this summer, having fallen behind Oleksandr Zinchenko in Arteta’s plans.
Despite a recent wobble that saw Arsenal lose their grip on the title race after three points from four games, they are now just one point behind leaders Man City after an impressive win at Newcastle.
City do have a game in hand, but will face an improving Everton side next who beat Brighton 5-1 in their last game.
The Gunners return to action on Sunday, when they face the Seagulls at the Emirates.
