Reiss Luke Nelson

Reiss Luke Nelson

Reiss Nelson attacks space from the right wing, using his dribbling to beat defenders and streak runs beyond the line. He rose through Arsenal's academy, made his first-team debut in 2017, and later shone on loan at Hoffenheim. He adds pace and creativity. During the 2018-2019 loan at Hoffenheim, he scored seven Bundesliga goals and refined his cutting inside. A spell with Feyenoord followed, contributing to their 2021-22 European Final run. His best role remains a winger who situates in pockets, dribbles, and threads through-balls to runners. Nelson earned the Castrol Game Changer of the Season for a late brace that turned a club result. He now joins Brentford on loan for regular first-team football.
