Arsenal place £20m price tag on player Mikel Arteta said made a ‘huge impact’ last season
Arsenal have now decided on a price tag for a forward who has enjoyed some excellent moments under Mikel Arteta since the manager’s arrival.
Edu is aiming to perform a small revamp of Arteta’s✃ squad this summer, finding high-calibre replacements for players currently on the periphery of things.
Although, Riccardo Calafiori’s imminent arrival at Arsenal🌃 is an exception to that rule, who has been signed before the likes of Jakub Kiwior or Kieran Tierney are possibly sold.
ꦫBut otherwise it will be akin to a one in, out policy, particularly when chasing the likes of Mikel Merino and Nico Williams.
🦩Arteta reportedly loves the pair, but Edu won’t sanction a deal before players leave in order to protect the club from a PSR prospective and also avoid an unnecessarily bloated squad.
That being said, a few of the side’s Hale End graduates look most likely to leave, namely Eddie Nketiah, Emile Smith Rowe and Reiss Nelson.
⛦And in Nelson’s regard, Arsenal have now decided how much they will ask for the winger in the coming weeks.
Arsenal want £20m for Hale End gradudate Reiss Nelson amid West Ham interest
According to Sunday’s publication of (page 72, 21/07), Arsenal will ask for £20m to sell Nelson who has been linked with West Ham.
ꩲArteta has often called on Nelson as a sub during the past couple of seasons, and the winger enjoyed an unforgettable moment against Bournemouth towards the end of the 2022/23 season.

Perhaps Nelson didn’t quite hit the same highs last campaign, but ahead of facing Luton Town in April of this year, Arteta did claim that Nelson had made a ‘huge impact’ in his time at the club.
Of course, Nelson is one a few players who both Arsenalও and their fans will be loath to lose this summer.
🌊However, both parties will likely recognise the need to upgrade and move on, no matter how difficult it may be to see a Hale-Ender leave.
🌠To recoup £20m for Nelson would be effective business for Arsenal, a player who could go on to thrive at West Ham.
🐭But that shouldn’t be concern for Arsenal who should have bigger ambitions.
And given how much Arteta wants to sign Williams for Arsenal💛, selling Nelson could go a long way to realising that dream.
