Young but he looks dangerous!!! Good signing.Quote:
Arsenal have announced they have agreed terms to sign teenage striker Joel Campbell on a day when Cesc Fabregas stands on the brink of joining Barcelona.
Nineteen-year-old Campbell was in his country's squad for the recent Copa America and the Under-20 World Cup.
The Gunners, who at the same time insist a deal has yet to be agreed for the sale of Fabregas,revealed on Friday night the transfer is subject to the completion of 'formal agreements and processes'.
Manager Arsene Wenger told his club's official website: "Joel Campbell has already shown that he is a player with great ability, and has also performed well on the international stage at a young age.
"We look forward to the formalities of the transfer being completed and working with Joel when he joins us at Arsenal."
Campbell is predominantly left-footed and has made six full international appearances, scoring twice.
He scored on his debut in a 5-0 win over Cuba at this year's CONCACAF Gold Cup, helping his side to the competition's quarter-finals.
Campbell has had two seasons in his native Primera Division, where he played for Deportivo Saprissaand on loan at Puntarenas, making a total of eight league appearances.
Im quite happy with this lad, at least he's got some experience at international level, probably equal to Lukaku tbf, but doesnt get the media pluadits for not being european.
anybody know what the visa situation with Campbell is like?
will he slip through like Miya - excaptional talent
Well he's a full international, so I don't think it will be a problem.Quote:

He looks a big lad, strong, has a good left foot on him, freekicks, can dribble, pace....the type of striker we haven't had since Henry left. Pace and power.
So a like for like replacement in terms of quality then :yawn:
So not Mata and not Jadson, wonder if we have a rabbit or two coming out of the hat.
Dead rabbits perhaps.Quote:
