Harper to Arsenal?

Harper to Arsenal?

29 November 2008 - 08:21

Arsenal have been linked with a shock January move for Newcastle goalkeeping understudy Steve Harper. The keeper's contract expires in the summer, but there have been reports Arsene Wenger could make a move this January for a small fee.

  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Spurs, Gilchrist starts
  • Chelsea midfielder looking forward to London derby vs Spurs

  • Harper has been the number 2 to Shay Given for some time, and the news of Arsenal's interest is sure to tempt the shot stopper.



    Harper said: ''My contract is up in the summer and I haven't been offered a new one. There are a few of us in the same boat and we'll just keep working and see what happens.



    ''With everything that's been going on, I don't know what the situation is. We're in the dark as well as to whether the club's being sold.



    ''But I've been fully committed here for the best part of 16 years and I'll remain so until somebody tells me otherwise. When Kevin was here he did mention he would like to give me a new deal but he's not here any more and it's died a death.''
