Olympiacos are once again interested in signing Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson on loan, Football London report.
Nelson has struggled for game time at Arsenal this term, despite originally being talked up by Mikel Arteta after he took over.
Arteta once called Nelson ‘special’ in the London Evening Standard, but the youngster hasn’t quite kicked on in their first-team.
The Gunners have already loaned out the likes of Joe Willock and Ainsley Maitland-Niles to get them more game time.
And it seems that Arsenal would be open to sending Nelson away on a temporary spell too, according to the latest update.
However, any deal depends on Nelson changing his mind and actually being open to leaving.
The England under-21 international has previously decided to stick around and fight for a place at Arsenal, but that has arguably proven an error so far.
Interestingly the report adds that Olympiacos have been chasing Nelson for almost a year now, which suggests that they are very keen.
A move could, therefore, benefit all parties. Nelson would surely get regular football, which he badly needs if he is to fulfill his potential, and Arsenal would clear space for an addition to be made.
It is thought that Arteta would like to add more attacking quality to his side this summer, and if a fresh face does arrive then Nelson could be knocked even further down the pecking order if he sticks around.
