Reiss Nelson Out for 10 Weeks with Injury

Reiss Nelson, the Arsenal winger on loan at Fulham, is set to miss up to 12 weeks due to a hamstring injury sustained during a 3-1 victory against Brighton. Fulham manager Marco Silva confirmed that Nelson would likely be sidelined for around 10 weeks, ruling him out of crucial festive fixtures and potentially 14 matches in total. This injury comes at a challenging time for Fulham, who are currently aiming for a European spot in the Premier League and will also be without other key players like Joachim Andersen and Harrison Reed. Nelson had been establishing himself in the starting XI and had contributed significantly with two goals and an assist in his recent appearances. The injury is a setback for both the player, who was regaining form, and Fulham, who are facing tough matches ahead, including a trip to league leaders Liverpool. Silva expressed optimism about coping without Nelson, but acknowledged the impact of his absence.
