Arsenal and Fulham are negotiating the transfer related to the reissuer Nelson, who can return to Craven Cottage this summer because the very cramped attack of the Gunners.
Reiss Nelson is about to return to Craven Cottage, in the context of Fulham and Arsenal are active in a potential agreement. Both London clubs are considering the transfer form, maybe in the form of semi -broken or loaned with mandatory buying terms at the end of the 2025/26 season.
According to The Athletic, while Fulham is willing to accept both scenarios, Arsenal showed his view: they only approved loan if accompanied by the term of purchase at the end of the season. Nelson made an immediate impression during the competition at Craven Cottage last season.
After joining Fulham on the last day of the transfer, he played 13 consecutive games. Unfortunately, Nelson had a serious waistal injury encountered in December 2024, causing him to sit out in the rest of the season.
Nelson time at Arsenal is marked by potential but unstable shine. The last time he played for the team of Mikel Arteta was to enter the pitch in the match against Aston Villa in the Premier League in August 2024.
Although the Gunners showed their confidence in him by suggesting a new contract in July 2023 when extending until June 2027 (with a 1 -year extension option clause), his role at The Gunners has decreased since then. In the 2023/24 season, Nelson had 23 appearances in all competitions, but only 2 main kicks in the Premier League and the Champions League.
In the context of Arsenal is restructuring the attack, the possibility of Nelson leaves is indispensable. Gunners have recruited Noni Madueke from Chelsea and Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting Lisbon. These additions show that the attack is in the transfer phase, and the space for rookies is needed. And, returning to Fulham can give Nelson the opportunity to regain performance and stability in the Premier League.
