Arsenal striker Joel Campbell looks set for another loan spell away from the club next season despite impressing at the World Cup.

The Costa Rica international, who will be in action again tonight when his side face Holland in the quarter-finals, has caught the eye in Brazil with a series of string displays.

And despite Arsenal’s need to add to their squad, particularly up front, it appears the 22-year-old will be sent out on loan again.

West Ham, Southampton, Everton and Newcastle are all said to be in the running to land the striker until January, when Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger will reassess the situation.


Campbell spent last term with Greek side Olympiakos, scoring in the Champions League against Manchester United.



But despite Arsenal’s ongoing search for a new striker, Wenger doesn’t feel the time is right to put his faith in Campbell.

Having allowed Nicklas Bendtner to depart the Emirates, the Gunners have just Olivier Giroud and Yaya Sanogo as out-and-out strikers for the coming season, however they have been linked with moves for Mario Balotelli and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, among others.
