**Arsenal** has reached an agreement with **Reiss Nelson**, the **26-year-old** winger, to mutually terminate his contract. A key departure as the player was not part of Mikel Arteta's plans. The **Arsenal transfer market** continues to focus on the outgoing operation.

As reported by David Ornstein in The Athletic, the forward leaves the Emirates Stadium before entering the final year of his contract, with the club waiving any transfer compensation in exchange for freeing up his salary from the club's balance.

The reasons for Reiss Nelson's departure and the balance at Arsenal

The sports management of **Arsenal** agreed to the departure after confirming that the attacker was not in Mikel Arteta's plans. At **26 years** old, Nelson closes his chapter at the team with a total of **90 matches**, **8 goals**, and **9 assists**, notably scoring in the **97th minute** against Bournemouth in **March 2023** for a **3-2** victory.

The academy graduate made his first-team debut in **August 2017** after signing his first professional contract in **December 2016**. During his time at the club, he had loan spells at Hoffenheim in the **2018-19** season, Feyenoord in **August 2021**, and Fulham in **2024**, where an injured hamstring interrupted his progress.

Injury history and interest from West Ham United

The forward's most recent loan was at Brentford, where he only played **13 matches** and **3 as a starter** due to injuries that caused him to miss **10 games**. West Ham United held formal talks with **Arsenal**'s board earlier this month to discuss his signing, but negotiations between the clubs did not lead to an agreed transfer.

Now a free agent, the English under-21 international can negotiate directly with any club without being bound by the transfer market deadline of **September 1**. Several Premier League and foreign teams have initiated preliminary contacts to understand the forward's demands.

Nelson's agents will review the offers received over the next three days. The forward will evaluate the available sporting options in England and European football to sign with his new destination before the start of the next league match.
