Reiss Nelson has officially departed Arsenal after agreeing to terminate his contract by mutual consent, according to David Ornstein. The 26-year-old winger, who had terms running until June 2027 with an option for an additional year, is now a free agent.

Nelson's exit opens up a new chapter for the player as he seeks his next club. He will be assessing interest from both English and foreign clubs before making a decision on his future. This move marks the end of his long association with the North London club, having come through their academy ranks.

The decision to mutually terminate the contract allows Nelson to pursue new opportunities immediately, rather than waiting for the transfer window to open or for his contract to expire further down the line. His departure is expected to free up wages and potentially a squad spot for Arsenal.
