Chuba Akpom moves to Brighton and Hove Albion
Championship high flyers Brighton and Hove Albion have completed a loan deal to sign Arsenal striker Chuba Akpom. The promotion hopefuls have snapped up the striker on a six month loan deal.
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.
