French side Nice are interested in signing Reiss Nelson from Arsenal, it's been claimed.
The 23-year-old winger was the hero of Saturday's dramatic 3-2 comeback victory at home Bournemouth by scoring a 97th-minute winner to keep Arsenal five points clear at the top of the Premier League table. The Gunners are now understood to have opened contract talks with their academy graduate, who's on course to become a free agent this summer when his current deal expires.
Nelson's situation has piqued the interest of multiple European clubs, including Nice, who are owned by would-be Manchester United owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe. As the founder and chief executive of chemical giants INEOS, Ratcliffe has tabled a bid for boyhood club United which is believed to be worth at least £4.5billion, but he's still seemingly committed to his project in the south of France.
