Arsenal to revive Ba bid

Arsenal will again make a move to sign Chelsea striker Demba Ba in January, the Metro understands.

The Senegal international looked set to secure a move to the Emirates during the summer, only for Blues boss Jose Mourinho to pull the plug following Mesut Ozil’s arrival in North London.

The Premier League leaders will aim to take the 28 year old until the end of the season before paying £5m to make the deal permanent in the summer.
Ba has barely played ninety minutes of first team football this season, making three brief appearances across three different competitions.

Overall, he has scored six goals in twenty-five games since moving to Stamford Bridge from Newcastle United in January, while he has also played
for West Ham United in the English top flight.

With Fernando Torres unavailable for Sunday’s trip to Norwich City, Ba may feature and you can back him at 7/5 to score at any time.
