Bentley Seals Permanent Deal

Arsenal forward, David Bentley, today made his loan transfer to Blackburn a permanent one.

The young Englishman fell out of favour with the Gunners and sought regular first team football with Blackburn, today however, the two teams struck up a deal that saw Bentley, 21, sign a contract for an undisclosed fee.

Bentley exploded onto the scene with an audacious chip against Boro in the Fa Cup two seasons ago, but has failed to break through and gain first team football.
