Arsenal has announced that Reiss Nelson, a promising young forward, has joined Fulham on loan for the upcoming season.
The 24-year-old has been a part of the Gunners’ academy since he was eight years old and has made significant contributions to the first team.
Nelson has amassed 90 appearances for Arsenal, scoring eight goals and providing nine assists.
He was a key member of the club’s FA Cup-winning squad in 2020 and has also lifted the FA Community Shield twice. Prior to his first-team breakthrough, Nelson showcased his talent in the academy, scoring 25 goals and assisting 11 times in 68 appearances across various youth levels.
This loan move to Fulham marks Nelson’s third temporary spell away from Arsenal. He has previously gained valuable experience with Hoffenheim in Germany and Feyenoord in the Netherlands. The Gunners wish Nelson all the best for his time at Craven Cottage.
Raheem Sterling Joins Arsenal on Loan
Meanwhile, Arsenal has secured another loan deal, bringing Chelsea forward Raheem Sterling to the Emirates Stadium for the 2024-25 season.
The 29-year-old England international completed his medical and finalized the transfer on Friday.
Sterling, who fell out of favor under Chelsea’s new manager Enzo Maresca, will now have the opportunity to showcase his skills at Arsenal.
His arrival adds further attacking firepower to Mikel Arteta’s squad.
