  • Chelsea make first move to sign Xabi Alonso


  • Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger has high hopes that Akpom will force his way into the Gunners' first team in the future and so has let the forward leave the club on a temporary basis.

    The return to fitness of Theo Walcott and Danny Welbeck appears to have persuaded Arsene Wenger that Akpom can head out on loan until the end of the season.
