West Ham United have reportedly emerged as favourites to capture the signing of Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson at the end of the season.
Reiss Nelson is reportedly locked in talks with Arsenal over a new contract and while his preference would be to remain at the Emirates, an agreement is yet to be reached.
West Ham keen on Reiss Nelson
According to the Daily Mirror, West Ham would be his preferred destination should an agreement with Arsenal fail to be reached.
The report claims Nelson's situation has alerted several clubs, with West Ham, Brighton, Atalanta, Roma, and several Bundesliga clubs keeping tabs on him.
Nelson is reportedly keen to stay in the capital even if he departs Arsenal, which has placed West Ham at the front of the queue.
Verdict - Nelson needs game time
With just 107 minutes of Premier League football this season, David Moyes' side will be able to give Nelson more regular game time than Arsenal.
