Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson has shown Mikel Arteta and Edu that he can step up to be Nicolas Pepe's replacement with an impressive performance against Orlando City.
Nelson scored the Gunners' third and final goal in the 3-1 win over the American outfit with a fine volleyed finish after drifting into the penalty box from the left wing. The 22-year-old spent last season on loan at Feyenoord in the Eredivisie, registering 11 goal contributions in 32 appearances for the Dutch side.
Nicolas Pepe could leave the Emirates this summer after falling down the pecking order in Arteta's squad following the emergence and performances of Bukayo Saka, Emile Smith Rowe and Gabriel Martinelli. Nelson could save Arsenal plenty of money this summer by proving himself to be a reliable backup option in Arteta's squad, should the 22-year-old wish to stay at the Emirates and settle for a squad role.
