Verona ask Arsenal for Jenkinson

By Football Italia staff

Hellas Verona are showing interest in Arsenal defender Carl Jenkinson, according to the Corriere dello Sport.

The 25-year-old is primarily a right-back, but can play in any of the roles over a four-man defence.

His contract is due to expire in June 2018 and he returned to base in January 2016 after a loan at West Ham United.

However, Jenkinson only made one Premier League appearance last term.

Newly-promoted Verona are back in Serie A after one year and ready to make a bid for Jenkinson.

He has one senior cap for England, earned in 2012, but his career didn’t develop the way Arsenal expected it to.
