Campbell To Remain In The Premier League

Campbell To Remain In The Premier League

Joel Campbell who was kept by Wenger in the squad after finally sorting out his problems with his visa, is now one foot out the door. The young forward failed to impress and had few chances to play this season. Competing with Walcott and Sanchez was a nightmare for the Costa Rican who did not continue playing at the same level as he did during the World Cup. Despite having no place at the Emirates apparently, Liverpool will try to sign him this winter. According to Metro, it will either be a loan deal until the end of the season and a possible definitive transfer in the summer or it will be a definitive transfer right away if Wenger decides he needs the money.

Brendan Rogers has repeatedly expressed his fondness of Campbell who at times looks brilliant. After Balotelli turned out be less than useful, the Costa Rican might come and take his place. Liverpool will have to battle Swansea and Everton for the youngster who is desperate to play especially after returning to the Premier League. Wenger has not given him time on pitch even while Walcott was out which means it will be very difficult to make it now that the attack is almost fully recovered. Campbell has been a great source of revenue for the Gunners who might depend on a permanent transfer this time in order to pay for the long list of transfers Wenger has set up for January.
