Arsene Wenger turning attention to Micah Richards

Gunners boss Arsene Wenger's eyes have been cast towards the Etihad Stadium, with England international defender Micah Richards thought to be interesting him, to solve the injury crisis in defense and also to add physical presence to the back four. 

Richards is an Arsenal fan and is thought to be considering the move, as well as the chance to gain a first team spot ahead of the World Cup in Brazil next summer. 


Wenger is keen to reinforce his squad before transfer deadline day, and is thought to be interested in a vast number of players, including Richards, Yohane Cabaye, Paul Pogba and Michu.


Richards made 8 appearances for Manchester City last season, scoring no goals and picking up 2 yellow cards.
