Reiss Nelson insists he has 'never doubted' himself after Arsenal brace against Nottingham Forest

Reiss Nelson insists he has never doubted his Arsenal future and is keen to commit to his boyhood club.

The 22-year-old scored twice after coming off the bench as the Gunners beat Nottingham Forest 5-0 on Sunday to return to the top of the Premier League.

It was Nelson's first league appearance since the loss to Brentford on the opening day of last season following a year out on loan at Feyenoord.

His goals were his first Premier League strikes in 837 days as he looks to come out of the shadows of the likes of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli to make his mark at a club he joined as a child.
