| Arsene Wenger told to sign Michael Carrick in January |
Arsene Wenger has been urged by former Gunners midfielder Charlie Nicholas to make a move for Manchester United midfielder Michael Carrick.
He told Soccer Saturday: “It makes sense for me to go for someone between the age of 30-32. There are a few about and if I was Arsenal I would go for Carrick.
“I am not saying he would play every week but Carrick could teach as well as play. Someone has to teach these players how to play positions.”
Meanwhile, Rangers boss Mark Warburton has confirmed Arsenal’s Gedion Zelalem will remain on loan at the Scottish Championship outfit until the end of the season.
Warburton said of the 18-year-old midfielder: "Gedion is staying with us. We talked to Arsenal, that’s an on-going process."
The United States Under-23 international has been key for Rangers this term, assisting six goals in 15 outings and bagging one in the process.
