Arsenal boss Wenger won't move for Chamakh in January

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has ruled out a January move for Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh.

The Morocco striker, out of contract at the end of the season, was heavily linked with a move to the Emirates Stadium throughout the summer.

Arsenal had a bid turned down for Chamakh and Wenger had previously hinted he could make another offer during the winter transfer window.

But Wenger claims he's happy with his current squad and has backed the likes of Eduardo, Nicklas Bendtner and Robin van Persie to bag the Gunners' goals this season.

"No, we don't go anywhere," said the Gunners' boss. "We have plenty of strikers. Eduardo has made a recovery and Nicklas Bendtner has extended his contract; that means we have strikers."
