Arsenal were unable to sign a winger in the summer transfer window, despite the clear need to strengthen in the wide areas. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have a lot of pressure to perform until the next opportunity to address this area of the pitch opens.
And matters got worse in that regard for Arsenal during the Gunners’ friendly fixture against Juventus at the Emirates Stadium before the Premier League restart. Reiss Nelson pulled up with a hamstring injury that has ruled him out of action indefinitely.
However, the Arsenal winger has provided an update on his progress, which could spell positive news. This comes after the Gunners’ disappointment in failing to strengthen in the wide areas over the last couple of weeks.
