Transfer: Arsenal terminate Reiss Nelson's contract, Arteta mute on Alvarez deal
- On Thursday, Arsenal and Reiss Nelson mutually agreed to terminate his contract by mutual consent. The 26-year-old winger becomes a free agent immediately, ending his 18-year association with the Gunners.
- Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and Nelson concluded that ending the deal provided the best path forward. Nelson required consistent first-team football, which remained difficult to secure under Arteta's leadership.
- Over his 18-year career at the club, Nelson made 90 senior appearances and delivered memorable moments, including a dramatic 97th-minute winner against Bournemouth during the Premier League title race.
- Interest from several clubs now surrounds the free agent, with West Ham monitoring his situation in England alongside Benfica, Marseille, and Valencia from abroad.
- While Arsenal receives no transfer fee, the termination removes Nelson's reported £100,000 weekly wages from the club's books, offering flexibility to manage the wage bill and focus on squad strengthening.
