Sol back to Emirates and other transfer gossip

Sol Campbell could make a shock return to Arsenal, but only if the club sells Swiss misfit Philippe Senderos in the January transfer window. Campbell has been training with Arsenal since quitting Notts County earlier this season. Gunners boss Arsene Wenger sees the 35-year-old as cover for Thomas Vermaelen and William Gallas. Campbell spent five years at Arsenal from 2001-06 and was part of their ‘Invincibles’ team of 2004. Elsewhere, Manchester City are on the verge of signing Argentine defender Cristian Ansaldi for £4m from Rubin Kazan; Liverpool have entered the race to sign Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh, who is also wanted by Arsenal, Everton and Tottenham; former Chelsea striker Eidur Gudjohnsen, who is now at Monaco, is closing in on a £2m move to Blackburn; and Birmingham want to make Kenwyne Jones the club's highest earner if he can lure him from Sunderland.
