Four years on Arsenal defender Campbell set for Champions League return

Sol Campbell is in line to start Arsenal's Champions League tie with Porto.

The Sun says the defender, 35, will play against Porto if William Gallas fails a late fitness test.

Campbell, who rejoined the Gunners last month, has not played in the competition since the 2006 final - which saw him open the scoring in the 2-1 defeat to Barcelona in Paris.

Gallas is struggling with a persistent back injury and manager Arsene Wenger warned Campbell he may be brought in at the last minute.
