Arsenal could be about to receive a transfer boost as their plans for the summer window begin to ramp up.

The Gunners have already completed four signings so far this summer with the arrivals of Christian Norgaard, Martin Zubimendi and Kepa Arrizabalaga.

It's also understood that Arsenal are working on deals to sign Sporting Lisbon striker Viktor Gyokeres and Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera. Even if those two signings are completed, the Gunners are showing no signs of slowing down on the transfer front.

Arsenal are also being linked with moves for Crystal Palace star Eberechi Eze and Real Madrid forward Rodrygo this summer. There is also the possibility of a departure being on the cards before the September 1 deadline.

Reiss Nelson spent last season on loan at Fulham where he impressed during his spell at Craven Cottage. The forward scored two goals but was restricted to just 12 appearances after suffering a season-ending hamstring injury back in December.

Fulham boss Marco Silva is understood to be keen to reunite with Nelson this summer, with the Arsenal forward wanting to put his fitness woes behind him.

It remains to be seen if a deal can be agreed for Nelson to join Fulham on loan. What could hand the Gunners a boost is if an agreement is reached for Nelson to move to Craven Cottage on a permanent deal either this summer or next year.

The injury to Nelson is likely to have affected his market value, and a year on loan at a Premier League club could see that value increase once again. If that was to happen, it could see Arsenal receive a financial boost in 12 months time, or even this summer if a a deal can be agreed.

If the Gunners were to receive funds for Nelson this year, it could hand them a major boost in having more money go towards the signings of Eze and Rodrygo.
