Arsenal’s pre-season for the 2022/2023 campaign is crucial for Reiss Nelson, who has an excellent opportunity to impress Mikel Arteta ahead of the Premier League opener on August 5. There is space in the right-wing position which Nelson can nail down to the end of next season.
Not only would Nelson’s performance benefit himself but also Arsenal in the transfer market as it could give the Gunners breathing space for a year before attempting the dream transfer for Serge Gnabry.
Signing the German would be highly unlikely this season as he is the type of player that must be competing amongst Europe’s elite. However, if Arteta’s side qualifies for the Champions League ahead of the next season, then there is every opportunity of a deal happening.
