Arsenal dealt Reiss Nelson blow in Juventus friendly as Mikel Arteta suffers injury woe

Reiss Nelson was forced off in Arsenal's friendly against Juventus as Mikel Arteta's injury list adds up.

The winger started on Saturday evening as the Gunners prepare for the return of domestic football. They welcomed the Italian giants to Emirates Stadium, losing 2-0, but fielded a strong starting XI which included Nelson, Eddie Nketiah, Fabio Vieira and Martin Odegaard as the forward players.

Nelson had to be replaced by Marquinhos midway through the first-half, however, after going down clutching his hamstring. The physio was quick to the scene but couldn't rescue the academy graduate's night. Fooball.london reported that the Arsenal star looked devastated as he left the pitch.
