Arsenal has announced that Reiss Nelson has renewed his contract with the club.

Nelson had an impact as the Gunners finished second in the Premier League standings, and he has now pledged his future to the club by signing a long-term contract. The winger scored three goals despite not receiving a Premier League start in 2022–23, including a thrilling 97th-minute winner against Bournemouth.

The 23-year-old has been a member of Arsenal since he was eight years old and has previously participated in loan stints with Hoffenheim and Feyenoord. With the club on the verge of bringing in Declan Rice and Jurrien Timber from West Ham and Ajax, respectively, he will now try to force his way into Mikel Arteta’s starting lineup.

Manager Arteta told the club’s website:  “Reiss is a player I have admired since the first day I was here. He has tremendous ability and is such an exciting offensive talent. Reiss knows how important he is to our squad with the quality he has.

“It’s great that Reiss has committed his future to us – he knows this club so well, he grew up here and we look forward to enjoying many more good moments with him.”

Nelson is likely to be heavily involved as Arsenal kick off their pre-season preparations.

After Ben White made his comeback in Arsenal’s victory against AC Milan in a friendly, Mikel Arteta declared that the defender is in “very good shape.”

White played the first half of the Gunners’ 2-1 win on Tuesday, with Martin Odegaard and Reiss Nelson getting the goals in the victory.

The defender was forced to leave the England World Cup team in Qatar for personal reasons, one of which was reportedly a falling out with the assistant coach of the Three Lions Steve Holland.

Speaking about White’s return to action, Arteta told the press he was pleased with the defender’s fitness levels, stating: “I’m very pleased, everybody has been giving him a lot of support and love which is what he needed.

“You know the reasons why he had to leave the camp, and we are delighted to have him back and have him in really good shape.

“That’ll take a few more days [for everyone else to return]. Granit is already here and is training and willing to participate on the weekend, so we don’t have that many away now so that is a positive thing.”

With the Arsenal team leading the Premier League heading into the second half of the season, defender White has been in outstanding form for the Gunners this year. He has adapted to his new position as a right-back with ease.

On December 26, the Gunners will return to league play when they take on West Ham United at the Emirates Stadium.

According to Reiss Nelson, the players at Arsenal “would do anything” for their Spanish coach Mikel Arteta, who has inspired a challenge for the Premier League title.

With 12 victories and 37 points from their first 14 games, the Gunners have made sure they will lead the English top division at Christmas for the first time since 2007.

After a humiliating fall from grace, confidence is regaining momentum at Emirates Stadium thanks to Arteta, who is in charge of shrewd transfer negotiations and has everyone on the red side of north London tapping their feet in unison.

Nelson, who has taken in seven appearances under Arteta this season, has told The Mirror of his highly-rated boss: “I feel like it has always been the same, he has always had the same blueprint in terms of what he wants to do it was just about getting the right players in to follow the same path.

He has got a group of players now that would do anything for him, anything he says and if you have that as a manager, the things you want to do will come good as everyone is fighting and understands what you want.”

Nelson added on Arsenal’s bid to claim a first domestic crown since the fabled ‘Invincibles’ of 2003-04: “I feel like the players have kind of – they are not thinking about the title, we are just thinking about each game as it comes.

The manager has instilled that in us. After every game, we have a picture on the board of the plan for the next game, so it is game by game, step by step, it is about how everyone can improve themselves and make the team get better. Of course, the title is something that we all dream of and want to do, but that is not worth thinking about all the time.”

As Nelson enters the final year of his contract, Arteta, who has previously brought Arsenal victories in the FA Cup and Community Shield, has his sights set on more significant hardware this season.

Reiss Nelson said he has never considered leaving Arsenal and that he is currently daydreaming about signing a new contract with the club.

Since breaking through as a 17-year-old, the winger, who has been with the Gunners since he was eight, has faced some difficulties, with first-team opportunities proving hard to come by.

However, he made the most of his chance to shine on Sunday, scoring twice in the 5-0 victory over Nottingham Forest after coming on in place of the injured Bukayo Saka.

He is currently expecting that these objectives can rekindle his stalled career in north London.

Speaking about his future, Nelson said: “I’ve never doubted myself. I have a very, very strong bond and love for the club. There’s been times where I’ve been a bit down, but my plan has never been to leave or say that I have no future here.

Of course [I would like a new deal]. Getting a new deal would be amazing and I would love to commit to the club. But I’m just really, really focused on doing the right stuff.”

When asked about his conversations with Mikel Arteta, Nelson added: “I spoke with the boss before the start of the season and he was very clear with me. He said he’s seen a transition in my game and my attitude which he really likes and he thinks that can really benefit the team. There was no talks with me about leaving in the summer.”

Nelson scored his first league goal for Arsenal against Nottingham Forest on Sunday, 837 days after scoring the game-winning goal against Liverpool on July 15, 2020.

The winger could be handed a start by Mikel Arteta on Thursday night when Arsenal host FC Zurich in the Europa League.
