Milan executives are busy preparing to launch a summer market offensive, and one player has already been presented to them – Reiss Nelson. The Rossoneri have an aging forward line in need of young blood, with players such as Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Ante Rebic, and Divock Origi perhaps reaching the end of their playing days at San Siro.
According to the latest reports by Calciomercato, Arsenal youth product and outcast Nelson has been offered to Milan on a free transfer come June, when his contract with the Gunners expires.
Following months of failed renewal negotiations, the youngster’s entourage finally seem to have lost hope of him staying at the Emirates. Nelson is eager to muster playing time under his belt, with just 511 minutes of game time in 14 appearances for the North London side this season.
Milan are reportedly willing to make the right winger one of their non-EU players, but only if he is available on a Bosman move.
Apart from Milan, Nelson has also been in contact with several other Italian clubs as well, with José Mourinho’s Roma and Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta the notable standouts. Premier League outfits Aston Villa, Brighton, West Ham United, and Fulham have all expressed interest in the 23-year-old.
