Rosicky back for Napoli clash

Tomas Rosicky has been included in Arsenal’s squad for this evening’s visit of Napoli in the Champions League.

The Argentina international has scored three goals in six league games for Rafa Benitez’s men so far this season, helping them to second in the league.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have been linked with a move for Newcastle United goalkeeper Tim Krul, according to the Express.

However, Netherlands international Krul, 25, has emerged as their top target, as the Premier League leaders seek for competition for Wojciech Sczcesny and Lukasz Fabianski.
