Gunners target Hoilett

Arsenal will step up their interest in Junior Hoilett after Blackburn were relegated to the Championship on Monday night.

Blackburn's 1-0 home defeat to Wigan sent them packing to the Championship and along with it went any hope of keeping the talented Hoilett who is out of contract in the summer. Bayern Munich and Marseille are also keen to take the young attacker abroad but it is thought that the player would prefer to stay in the Premier League and that will make the Gunners favourites to strike a deal. Hoilett is in no rush though and he will wait to see what other clubs come in for him during the summer before making a final decision on where he will play next season. Hoilett is just the kind of signing Arsene Wenger likes, young, talented and better still available on a free transfer.
