Campbell: I’m good enough for Arsenal Posted by: Arseblog News Hound22 mins agoin First team, Loan players, Pre-season 13 Comments Joel Campbell says he has the talent to succeed in any league in the world as he eyes the chance to fulfil his Premier League dream. The Costa Rica international has been handed the opportunity to train with the Arsenal first team squad in Austria this week and looks set to make his debut for the club in the Emirates Cup, three years after signing from homeland side Saprissa. While it remains to be seen whether he’ll still be a Gunner come the end of August, the 22-year-old striker says the experience he’s gained from three loan spells stands him in good stead for the future. “The Premier League’s the most interesting in the world and I’ve always wanted to play here. It’s my dream. And I believe I’m good enough,” Campbell told The Sun. “I’ve played around 100 games in three different divisions in Europe. Lorient in France, Real Betis in Spain and Olympiakos in Greece, where I played Champions League too. “I’m confident of being successful in any division in the world.” Arsenal returned from their four day training camp in Bad Waltersdorf last night and now turn their attention to their weekend clashes with Benfica and Monaco respectively. Given Alexis Sanchez has only just started his pre-season routine and Theo Walcott is sidelined until September you’d expect Campbell to get some minutes under his belt in one or other of the games. The last two players sharing his surname, Kevin and Sol, picked up nine major honours between them during their Arsenal careers, so you know…no pressure Joel.2,462 views
