Arsenal confirm Campbell's return • Defender signs contract until the summer• 'I'm so happy and I'm ready to give my all'Arsenal have confirmed that Sol Campbell has completed his return to the club on a deal that will run until the end of the season.The 35-year-old played 45 minutes in a midweek reserve match against West Ham and confirmed his desire then to play again for Arsène Wenger. However, he is not expected to be involved in tomorrow's Premier League trip to Bolton.The move completes a dramatic turnaround for the defender, who began the season playing in League Two at Notts County, making only one appearance before quitting. Wenger allowed Campbell to train with Arsenal following his exit from County, with his efforts persuading the Frenchman to sign him up again. It is the first time Wenger has ever brought a former player back to the club during his 13 years in charge."We are delighted to have signed Sol Campbell until the end of the season," Wenger said. "For both club and country, Sol's career just speaks for itself. He is a hugely experienced and intelligent footballer, who will bring a great amount of quality and knowledge to our squad. Sol as a player and a person will be an enormous asset to us."Sol has been training with us since September and during this time he has shown he still has the required fitness, hunger and passion to compete at the top level."Campbell won two Premier League titles - including in the unbeaten Invincibles season of 2003-04 - and two FA Cups during his first spell at the club, before moving to Portsmouth in 2006. He now hopes he can provide some leadership to the Gunners as they attempt to keep pace with Chelsea and Manchester United in the battle for the title."I'm so happy to be rejoining Arsenal," Campbell said. "I have many great memories from being here before and still have many friends at the club. I've been working very hard at the Arsenal training ground, I feel really good at the moment and I'm ready to give my all. We're in a strong position and I want to help Arsenal be successful this season."ArsenalSol CampbellPremier LeagueKaty Murrellsguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds guardian.co.uk |
