Irons aim for new Jenkinson spell

|
carl-jenkinson-562633West Ham intend to keep Carl Jenkinson on loan next season if Arsenal can be nailed down to another year.
The right back has had a brilliant season at Upton Park but Arsenal manager has made it clear the England under 21 is not for sale.
He has already spoken to the player and claims the only decision to be made is whether the player will go out on loan.
That is considered a certainty as Wenger knows he can’t afford to have unhappy players in his dressing room season and the Hammers are keen to sign him up to another campaign.
A source told ClaretandHugh: “We are certainly keen to keep him and that would probably be as a loan because he’s an Arsenal player so they hold all the cards.”
He confirmed that nether the widely touted Glen Johnson return or a move for Micah Richards was likely adding: “These seem to have been recycled from last summer.”

    If they won’t sell them what’s wrong with another year,we would have probably paid him more if he as our player plus they take all chances if he was to have any problems,
    Just make sure we have a good replacement

    Jenkinson himself holds all the cards, if he wants out of arsenal then it happens. Contracts and what managers say mean nothing now days, everything comes at a price – let’s hope G&S are willing to pay the price needed! Loved Jenks from the minute he put on our shirt
