Atruro Lupoli
19 Year Old Italian striker Arturo Lupli
Derby County look set to gain a season long loan of highly rated Arsenal Striker Arturo Lupoli. The 19 year-old is the subject of interest from both the Rams and West Brom.

It is the Rams who now seem favourites for the Brescia born strikers signature after Arsene Wenger has stepped in to not grant a move WBA. His reasoning being that Lupoli would benefit from playing first team football and that is not guaranteed at the Hawthorns with John Hartson and Nathan Ellington forming the first choice forward line-up.

If the move comes off Lupoli will link up with experienced Striker Steve Howard. A signing that should benefit all concerned and produce a strike force capable of lifting the Rams up the Championship table.
