West Ham leading race for out-of-favour Arsenal star

West Ham are leading the race to sign Reiss Nelson this summer with the winger keen to quit Arsenal.

Nelson turned down interest from other clubs to sign a new long-term deal at Arsenal last summer but struggled to break into Mikel Arteta’s plans last season.

 

The 24-year-old made just one start in the Premier League and has informed the Gunners that he is keen to explore other opportunities.

West Ham are interested in a deal to sign Nelson as Julen Lopetegui looks to improve his squad. The Irons have allowed Said Benrahma to join Lyon on a permanent deal and Nelson, who is valued at around ยฃ25m, is viewed as a potential replacement.

talkSport are reporting that Crystal Palace will compete with their London rivals for the winger, however, as the Eagles seek a replacement for Michael Olise following his ยฃ60m transfer to Bayern Munich.

Brighton have also expressed previous interest in signing Nelson, who will seek assurances over his role before making a decision on his future.

 

Arsenal have also received interest from Premier League rivals for Emile Smith Rowe. The Gunners have rejected opening bids of around ยฃ30m from Fulham and Crystal Palace.
