Striker reveals Arsenal transfer stance

Mika Biereth has admitted a move back to Arsenal would be 'fantastic'. Speaking to TV2, the former Gunners star said: "Things are going well in Sturm Graz and I have nothing to complain about, right now. I play every week at a good level, and now we also play in the Champions League, where I'm still waiting for my first goal.

"If I keep playing well and scoring goals, hopefully a change can come, but right now I'm focused on Sturm and on doing well and scoring goals. A return to Arsenal would be fantastic, but not something I'm focusing on right now."

football.london says: "If Mika Biereth were to re-sign for Arsenal, he'd be brought in as an understudy for either Gabriel Jesus or Kai Havertz. And that's assuming the Gunners don't go out and sign a world-class talisman in the upcoming transfer window or two."
