Arsenal duo could be offered to Newcastle

Arsenal duo Joel Campbell and Mathieu Debuchy could be offered to Newcastle in January, according to the Chronicle.

Both players look set to leave the Gunners over the course of the upcoming window, and scouts from all over the world have been monitoring their progress.

Campbell has spent time on loan at the likes of Lorient, Olympiacos and Villarreal, where he featured regularly for all three sides.

The 23-year-old winger has found it hard to break into a quality Arsenal side, however, the Costa Rica international has made seven appearances under Wenger this season, scoring two goals in the process.

His contract expires next summer, so the Magpies could secure his services for a cut-price fee in January.

Debuchy, who spent two years on Tyneside, is reportedly desperate for a move away from North London next month.

The 30-year-old right-back has seen his place in the Arsenal team nicked by the wonderful Hector Bellerin, who emerged from the shadows earlier this year.

Debuchy feels that he needs to secure regular first-team football if he is to feature in next year’s European Championships.

The Frenchman’s replacement, Daryl Janmaat, is now one of Newcastle’s best players, so a surprising return to the Magpies looks way off the mark.
