The Hammers <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">are planning<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> to sign another winger alongside <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/06\/03\/west-ham-luis-guilherme\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Luis Guilherme<\/a>, who joined them from Palmeiras in a \u00a325 million deal.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">With <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Nelson&#8217;s<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> contract having three more years left, Arsenal might expect a fee of \u00a315-20 million.

The winger made just one league start in 2023\/24, <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">with<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> his other 14 appearances coming from the bench. He has a better chance of getting more starts at West Ham. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">His progress has been hindered by the rise of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Arteta prefers them, along with Leandro Trossard, over Nelson. Hence <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">it<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> would be difficult to see the 24-year-old remain at Arsenal for next season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Read More<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">:\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/07\/15\/ajax-tommy-setford-arsenal-transfer-agreement\/\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Arsenal Set To Sign<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> \u2018<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Intuitive<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u2019\u00a0<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Goalkeeping Talent From Eredivisie<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Besides, if the Gunners fulfill their plan to <\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2024\/06\/26\/arsenal-obstacles-winger-targets\/\" target=\"_self\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">bring in another <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">winger<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> it would sound the death knell for <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Nelson&#8217;s<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Arsenal future.
