'It's your turn!': Arsenal star Reiss Nelson sends classy message to Joe Willock ahead of Newcastle United loan move

The midfielder is set to head to St James’s Park on loan until the end of the season as Steve Bruce looks to freshen up his midfield.

And ahead of the move Nelson, who has progressed through the ranks at the Emirates Stadium, sent his teammate a message of good luck.

Posting on Instagram, he said: “God bless you my brother! I will miss you 100x but it’s your turn go show the world! I’m behind you my brudda.”

Willock looks set to be the only player through the door on Tyneside today, with a move for Hamza Choudhury now seemingly dead in the water.

Newcastle were also believed to be in the race for defender Ozan Kabak – who now looks set to join champions Liverpool on a temporary basis.
