So with Jermain Defoe clearly an unhappy-chappy and out of favour when it comes to Harry picking his first 11, the Daily Star has reported a possible move… to ARSENAL.

They state Defoe is the man Wenger feels can lead the gunners tittle challenge next season. Now first thing is first, Arsenal certainly need more than just a striker to challenge, and if the Arsenal boss fails to deliever the goods this summer, you have to believe the Challenge will be to get into the top four, never mind sitting top of the table come May.

The frustrated front man has only managed 30 apearences and nine goals over all this campaign, and despite being plagued with injury’s when fit the England striker has found himself on the bench as Van der Vaart is now priority at the Lane.

At the age of 28, the next move is possibly vital during a career that has allowed us to see glimpses of class shine through, as an inform Jermain Defoe can prove a nemesis for any back four.

Spurs would be willing to let him go for around £10 million, but the thought of him returning to haunt the club wearing the Red and White colours of Arsenal I believe will remain as the fictional image in my head.

I believe the man whom has only ever plied his trade in the south of the country is now ready to fly the nest and take up a challenge elsewhere. There is certainly a vacant position for Defoe’s occupation in the North East, not to mention Goodison.

Who knows, I believe he’ll be off this summer and there will be plenty of takers willing to take a chance on him, but not Arsenal… Can’t see it
