Reiss Nelson (Out)

[Yousif Arsenal]

We just sold Malacia for 15 million euros and Sinisterra for 25. We should have money in the bank, I've read that we are trying to get him but i couldn't find an asking price for him, would you happen to know what you guys are asking for him?

i think asking price should be 5M or just bit above that. we might even giving you Nelson for free.

Would be interesting for us for sure, he did really well in the 2nd half of the season. The first half unfortunately he didn't play much cuz he wasn't fit enough from what I've understood.

He was rated as one of the most talented youngsters of our current crop. Just had some setbacks, didn't have the mentality and didn't perform.

The comparison going around was Sancho, Hudson-Odoi and Nelson when younger.

He surely has talent so I would not be surprised to see him being a late bloomer. I hope they put a sell-on clause and get like 5 million.

There is a possibility we might hang on to him now. Given our transfer window has been given a bit of twist, we may have to prioritize the MF positions & sacrifice the RW target & maximize our squad.

Doubt we will pay that much for him, the money incoming for us isn't anywhere near the English clubs have. Being a Feyenoord fan all my life i think at max they wanna go untill 5 million euros since we are prioritizing Wilfried Gnonto, who already agreed terms with us but now we gotta get an agreement with Zurich.

Gnonto would be a very exciting signing.

Could be done for £5m if add ons are right

More likely they’d give Marquinhos those minutes.

He didn't come in the team until the 2nd half of the season, did great the last week's. Nobody played well for us in the final vs Roma unfortunately. I would like him to stay in Rotterdam tbh

Yeah, I can see him carving out a nice career in Holland, but for us I or at a big club in England I don't see any real chance. He resembles nothing the player that was so promising at youth level.

In the final against Roma Sinisterra looked the most interesting player to me. Interesting looking at transfermarkt and seeing that he's mostly an interior LW, he played very much like a midfielder in that game.

 

[Let's play Aubamawang]

I can see Nelson blossoming away from the Emirates if he puts his head down and works like Gnabry, I just don't know if he is up for a fight mentally, which is a real shame as I like him as a player.

No way! He has given enough chance, and the guy is simply not good enough

Did you even read my post before replying? I basically said he might improve if he moves out of his comfort zone and plays regularly elsewhere. So I'm assuming he won't make it here...

 

[DanDare]

City would get £20m for him

 

[Uncle Good-Advice]

5M for Nelson and people here are happy with that? WTF?

Depends on the add-ons.
% of future sale
Set buy back option price
Performance related add-ons.

We sold David Bentley for a song back in the day, but no-one complained when we got another £8m due to sell on clause...

While I agree with the importance of add-on clauses Bentley in my opinion wasn't on the level of Nelson. He openly wanted out, had some problems off the pitch and it was 10 years ago. 2M for Bentley back then is like 10M now in my opinion.

How is he worth more than 5m? He is a 22 year old winger, non international who scored 4 goals in the Eredivisie last season. Sinisterra is only one year older and scored 23 goals...atm Nelson is a 5m player. probably even less.

It all depends on who's buying. At present there appears to be only one club linked with Nelson and its not a rich club and nor is it one that needs to pay a premium on English players. Bentley had just had a decent loan spell in the EPL, which always inflates prices.

 

[Big Poppa]

He’d be a good pickup for one of the newly promoted sides - Fulham & Forest especially

 

[redanddread]

Never saw what the hype was about. Never showed me anything special at 1st team level. Guys like Reiss need to carve out their career elsewhere and be in a team where they get regular minutes and can develop otherwise their career will pass them by. GL to him...

Exactly. And that's why we shouldn't sell him for peanuts abroad because it's likely that better offers will come. Around August there's going to be a lot of teams in England desperate to buy someone like Nelson. To be clear, I'm not the biggest fan but still he's fairly young and has some potential at least enough for Championship level.

why is he still here?
