Ian Wright has said on Ringer FC’s Wrighty’s House podcast that he has been impressed by Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson in pre-season.
The Arsenal legend believes that winger Nelson has had a new lease of life in pre-season.
The 22-year-old winger has done well for Arsenal in pre-season after returning from his loan spell at Feyenoord.
Nelson was on loan at Feyenoord from Arsenal in 2021-22.
The 22-year-old made 10 starts and 11 substitute appearances in the Eredivisie last season.
Nelson scored two goal and provided four assists in those matches.
The Athletic have reported that the winger may be given chances to impress manager Mikel Arteta this season.

Future at the Emirates Stadium
In our view, Reiss Nelson could have a future at Arsenal, but for that, the 22-year-old winger needs to take his chances when he gets them.
Now, if the English youngster does stay at the North London club this season, then he is likely to get chances in the cup competitions and the UEFA Europa League.
When Nelson takes to the pitch, he simply has to perform.
Nelson is out of contract at Arsenal in the summer of 2023, and if he does well in the coming months, then he could earn a new deal.
