Nelson, 21, has spent the majority of this campaign on the fringes and has made just two Premier League appearances, both of which came from the bench.

The winger was promoted to the first team by Unai Emery at the start of last season after a successful 2018/19 campaign on loan at Hoffenheim.

But Nelson has lost his place in the matchday squad under Emery’s successor, Arteta, and the Gunners are open to letting him leave the Emirates at the end of the season. That’s according to CBS Sports , with Arteta continuing to leave out Nelson in favour of Bukayo Saka, Willian and Nicolas Pepe in the wide areas.
