Nelson grateful for Arsenal's 'big characters' in aiding his development

The exciting young attacker has praised his more experienced team-mates for helping him adjust to life as a regular in the Gunners' senior squad

Reiss Nelson is thankful for the advice and support he has received from Arsenal's "big characters" since returning to Emirates Stadium after a loan spell in Germany.

The 19-year-old spent the 2018-19 campaign on loan at Hoffenheim, scoring seven goals in 23 appearances for the Bundesliga club.

Nelson impressed enough to convince Unai Emery that he could have a key role to play this season, offering Arsenal a new outlet going forward alongside the like of Nicolas Pepe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Alexandre Lacazette.
