Arsenal will consider sending Reiss Nelson out on loan in January, with Wolves and Sevilla both interested in the winger, according to reports.
Nelson came through the Arsenal academy but has found his first-team opportunities limited in recent seasons.
The 24-year-old has scored one goal in all competitions this season, with the Englishman playing just 89 minutes in the Premier League.
According to CBS Sports, Arsenal may look to send Nelson out on loan as they look to make room for incomings in January.
Both Wolves and Sevilla are reportedly interested in the winger’s signature but it is believed that Nelson would prefer to stay at the club and fight for his place in the side.
Nelson spent the 2021-22 season on loan at Feyenoord, registering two goals and four assists in 21 Eredivisie games.
The north London club are still expecting to see some departures in the new year, with Cedric Soares and Thomas Partey among those rumoured to be available for sale.

The Gunners are keen to bring in a striker – with Ivan Toney a top target – as well as defensive reinforcements to ease the pressure on centre-back duo William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes.
Speaking before their loss against West Ham, Mikel Arteta hinted that Arsenal will be active in the upcoming January transfer window after admitting his side are ‘really short’ in some areas.
‘We have certain targets and ideas,’ he said. ‘We don’t know how the squad is going to look in two weeks time. It’s a very tricky market that shifts quite quickly.
