Reiss Nelson drops big hint about Arsenal return

Arsenal player Reiss Nelson, who is currently on loan with Hoffenheim has dropped a big hint on his return to his ‘boyhood club’. Nelson has enjoyed a great season in Bundesliga side and scored 5 goals in 6 games this term. Despite his success at Hoffenheim Nelson has hinted an early return could be possible speaking about his plans for the future to the BBC. "Arsenal are my boyhood club," he said. "I've been with them since I was eight, so that's 10 years. "I just want to go back there stronger because at the time I was at Arsenal I was 16, 17 and I didn't feel confident. "I didn't think I was a man, but now I'm feeling stronger and I think a couple more months or even a year in Hoffenheim will make me strong and give me the belief and confidence to go back to Arsenal and do very good there. "I want to be an Arsenal legend. And, for England, it's the best. You can't beat playing for your country I don't think." Nelson made 15 appearances for Arsenal last season under Arsene Wenger, but having seen his best friend Jadon Sancho get even more playing time with Borussia Dortmund, he felt the time was right to try something new. It seems that Nelson now wants to head back to his former club as he has already overcome the challenge he faced in Bundesliga. "I always want to be the best player I can be," Nelson explained. "I'm 18 and I thought going to the Bundesliga will give me a challenge and doing that would make me become a better footballer and a better person as well throughout life. "I wanted to challenge myself and see what I could do. It's going well so far. "It's incredible. But I've just got to keep it up. It's not just for the six games, I've got to do it throughout the season. "I don't know where it's going to take me, but I've just got to keep my feet on the ground and keep positive." Nelson added: “I know a lot of the top [young] players in England as well and they're always saying, 'How is life in Germany, how is the Bundesliga?' and I'm just saying, 'It's great'. "They believe in young players and that's the main thing. Getting the belief behind you to play football. "It might no be so good for England if they [young players] all leave, but on a personal level, I think it will be great for young players to get playing time and show everyone what they can do," Nelson added.
