Darren Bent to be loaned to Arsenal

Darren Bent could go on a one year loan to Arsenal, enabling him to rejoin the Addicks when they return to the Premiership reports the East Anglian Daily Times.

Liverpool, Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham, are leading the race to sign the £15m rated striker, but a loan deal could be more attractive to the Addicks, particularly if more money comes into the club in the meantime.

The EADT understands the move would suit life-long Arsenal fan Bent, and the Addicks, as it would mean them keeping hold of their captain if they bounce straight back up, or it could lead to a permanent move if Charlton fail to return to the Premiership straight away.

But a loan move would leave the Tractors without their 20% of any fee over £2.6m promised as part of the deal that took Bent to the Valley from Portman Road two years ago.

Wyn, this sounds like media speculation to me. I wouldn't be surprised to see DB running out for the Addicks next season.
