Wenger: 'Campbell is part of my plans'

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has revealed that Joel Campbell is part of his plans for the coming season.

The Costa Rica international enjoyed a successful loan spell with Olympiacos last season, before turning in some eye-catching performances for his national side at the World Cup, and Wenger has said that the young forward is in his thinking.

He told reporters: "Yes, [Campbell] is part of my plans. He might play tomorrow against Benfica."

Campbell signed for the Gunners back in 2011 but has yet to make an appearance due to work permit issues.
