Arsenal boss
Arsene Wenger is ready to revive
his bid for Bordeaux striker Marouane
Chamakh.
The Daily Mail says Wenger admits his concern at
failing to score in back-to-back Barclays Premier League defeats by Chelsea and Sunderland following injury to star striker
Robin van Persie.
With the Holland international now ruled out for up to five
months and Nicklas Bendtner also struggling with a groin strain,
Wenger is contemplating adding to his attacking options when the
transfer window opens in January.
Chamakh
The Frenchman remains an admirer of Chamakh, but a summer
pursuit turned ugly when he refused to bid even half of Bordeaux's
£15million asking price and later withdrew his interest because he
thought the Morocco international would struggle to get a game at
the Emirates Stadium.
The landscape has changed, however, and Chamakh could be
available at a knockdown price as he is out of contract in the
summer.
