Arsenal midfielder Nelson hopes Euro form leads to Prem chance

Arsenal midfielder Reiss Nelson hopes his form in the Europa League will get him a run in their Premier League side.

The 20-year-old bagged the second goal in Mikel Arteta's side's 3-0 win over Molde on Thursday.

Nelson has played just 45 minutes of Prem football this season but when asked if the Europa League is a competition that can make Arteta take notice, he replied: "Of course.

"Joe [Willock] is in excellent form and it just shows that if you do your business on the pitch the manager is not afraid to throw you in like he has with Joe and with everyone else.

“You see young Balogun got a goal as well and it is nice to see young prospects coming through and getting the goals."
