‘This could be my time’ – Nelson hails Arsenal boss Emery’s youth policy

Arsenal winger Reiss Nelson is confident that he can be a hit at the Emirates Stadium this season, having been given the opportunity to start the club’s first two Premier League games of the 2019-20 campaign.

The 19-year-old attacker was shipped out on loan to Hoffenheim last season, where he proved a roaring success in the Bundesliga by scoring seven times in 23 outings, while he also earned Champions League experience.

Having impressed in pre-season, he has been given game time already this season and is confident of winning more thanks to the attitude of manager Unai Emery, who tells his youngsters to go out and play without fear.
