Real Sociedad has made a £6million bid to sign Arsenal forward Joel Campbell according to the Mirror.

Sociedad boss David Moyes is reportedly a fan of the Costa Rica international and hopes to beat off competition from Portuguese giants Benfica to sign the 23-year-old.

Campbell spent second half of last season on loan at Villarreal as part of the deal which saw defender Gabriel Paulista join the Gunners.

He has previously had loan stints at Lorient in France, Spain's Real Betis and Olympiakos of Greece during his Arsenal career.

It is believed that Campbell has made it clear he wants to leave Arsenal and boss Arsene Wenger is likely to grant his wish.
