The 26-year-old winger, Joel Campbell completed a stunning move to Arsenal in 2011 rejecting moves to Sevilla and Fiorentina.

The Costa Rican faced issues with his work-permit and was immediately loaned out to French club Lorient.

The promising winger failed to cement his spot in the starting lineup and was also loaned out to a number of clubs in Europe.

His best time at Arsenal came in 2015 when he scored in his first Premier League start of the season against Swansea City in a 3-0 win. He followed that with his first Emirates Stadium goal of the season against Sunderland in December 2015.

On 31 August 2017, Campbell was loaned out to Real Betis for the second time in his career. In October 2017, he picked up an unfortunate injury that kept him out of action for three months. He returned to training in January 2018 but failed to make any notable contributions.

The Gunner who has just one year remaining on his contract has revealed his concerns regarding his Arsenal future in a recent interview.

He has outlined why another loan away from the club next year is "impossible". Campbell has been named surplus to requirements by Emery and a possible move away from the London club remains just a matter of time.
