Philippe Senderos Pleads To Be Allowed To Leave Arsenal
Swiss defender wants first-team football ahead of World Cup.
Phillipe Senderos - Arsenal (PA)Philippe Senderos has begged to be allowed to leave Arsenal during the January transfer window.
The Swiss international center-back has endured a difficult spell at the Emirates, failing to command a regular first-team place.
He is also recovering from a foot injury that has left him wearing a surgical boot.
Now he wants a move away from north London in order to boost his chances of playing for his country at next summer's World Cup finals in South Africa.
"I want to go. I want and need to be playing ahead of the World Cup," he told BBC Sport.
"I don’t want to play in the reserves, I just want to play."
Everton, Atletico Madrid and Bayern Munich are all believed to be tracking the 24-year-old, whose departure from the Gunners could be hastened by the arrival of Sol Campbell on a deal until the end of the season. -
Sad to see him go down the spiral but he's not improving in the recent years. I think it's time for him to leave.

Report: Arsenal's Senderos About To Sign Pre-Contract Agreement With Serie A Club
The Swiss international looks set to return to Italy.
EURO 08: Philippe Senderos, Switzerland (PA)Arsenal centre-back Philippe Senderos is close to signing a pre-contract agreement with an Italian top flight club, according to a report from Sky Sports News.
The Swiss international revealed this week that he was desperate to move away from the Emirates this season in order to find first team football ahead of the World Cup.
The 24-year-old is apparently happy at Arsenal, but very frustrated at his lack of first team opportunities.
He spent the bulk of last season on loan at AC Milan, but is is not yet clear whether it is to them that he will return when he leaves north London.
His pre-contract agreement means that he will definitely leave in the summer, but there is as yet no indication as to what he could do for the rest of this campaign.
Arsene Wenger's signing of Sol Campbell suggests that there could yet be movement out of the Emirates on the defensive front this window.
