Arsenal will not give Hoffenheim any chance of securing Reiss Nelson on a permanent basis, according to Bild via TalkSport.

What's the word?

Reiss Nelson has attracted plenty of interest following his superb start to his loan spell with Hoffenheim, scoring a brace for the Bundesliga side at the weekend and netting twice while on international duty with the England U21's.

The 18-year-old is the latest English starlet to shine in Germany, following in the footsteps of Jadon Sancho at Borussia Dortmund, but there is no chance of Nelson moving to the club on a permanent basis.

According to Bild via TalkSport, Arsenal see Nelson as a big part of their plans for the future and have no intention to sell the academy graduate.

The right move?

With Arsenal lacking depth in the wide areas this season, there is a case to suggest that Nelson could have been a useful asset for Unai Emery in 2018-19. However, he would certainly not be enjoying the rise he has with Hoffenheim.

Come the end of the season, Nelson will return to Arsenal with extremely valuable first-team experience and that will provide a huge boost to the squad, with the teenager potentially then becoming a regular fixture in the Arsenal side.

With Alex Iwobi on the left and Nelson on the right, with a rejuvenated Mesut Ozil playing in the number ten role, Arsenal would have the structure to build a title-winning side around for the coming years, so the club's stance is certainly perfect.
