Wenger admirer: Babel
Ajax striker Ryan Babel has paved the way for a £6m move to
Arsenal by admitting it would be a 'dream' to work with Arsene
Wenger. Babel, 21, is seen as the long-term replacement to Thierry
Henry, and he can't wait to play in the Premier
League.
He said: "If I get the chance to train with Arsene Wenger it would
be a dream. From when I was young I supported Arsenal - they style,
the ambiance, how they show themselves on the field -
everything.
"The Premier League is maybe the best league, a very high level. I
know Robin van Persie who plays there very well, and he is a great
person - I have a lot of phone contact. "It is a normal thing for a
young player to want to prove himself in the Premiership."
