Irons Eye Up Jenkinson Loan

West Ham are said to be very interested in re-signing Arsenal right-back Carl Jenkinson on loan for next season, claims the Guardian.

The England international defender is currently playing with the Under-21s ahead of their European Championships campaign this summer.

The 23-year-old is currently the fourth-choice right-back at Arsenal, behind Mathieu Debuchy, Hector Bellerin and Calum Chambers, but Arsene Wenger is reluctant to sell the player during this transfer window.

It’s said he’s much more interested in loaning the player out again for the 2015/16 season, with West Ham the obvious choice.

The Daily Mail are now reporting that West Ham are being put off of a potential deal for Jenkinson, after the Gunners demand a £2m loan fe for the player.

The Hammers have cooled their interest in former player Glen Johnson following his release from Liverpool, but remain keen on free agent Micah Richards.
