​DONE DEAL: Arsenal loan defender Chambers to Fulham

Arsenal have sent Calum Chambers to Fulham on loan for the 2018/19 season.

The 23-year-old recently signed a new four-year deal with the Gunners.

"I'm really excited. I watched a lot of Fulham last season, I really like the way they play football, there's a good manager, it's a great club, so I'm really excited for the season ahead," Chambers told Fulham's website.

"Everyone can see that Fulham's a club that likes to play football, play football from the back, through the lines.

"That's the style of football I like as well, so I think it fits me and suits the way I play."

It will be Chambers' second season on loan since joining the Gunners from Southampton in 2014.

"Calum is a talented defender who has a bright future," he said. "We all believe this loan at Fulham will be an important part of his development and wish him a successful season."
