Fulham have beaten Ipswich Town to the loan signing of Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson in a deal that paves the way for Raheem Sterling to join the Gunners from Chelsea.
The Cottagers were always intent on signing a winger on deadline day and had an agreement in place for the £16million signing of Ernest Nuamah, but that hit a late snag. Fulham promptly turned attentions to Nelson, which saw newly promoted Ipswich miss out.
