Arsenal defender Phillippe Senderos is close to joining AC Milan after it was reported he is undergoing a medical in Milan today. The Swiss international has struggled to nail down a first team place at the Emirates over the past 12 months with William Gallas and Kolo Toure forming a solid partnership in the centre of the Gunners defence.The 23-year old was also linked with a move to Newcastle earlier this summer but for whatever reason nothing every materialised. It is rumoured that Senderos could complete a a one-year loan deal to the Serie A giants and a move could be complete as early as tonight. Senderos has made 31 appearances for the Swiss national team, scoring 3 times in the process.
I am pretty surprised to see AC move for a player like Senderos. I personally feel Senderos is an no better than an average defender and I it doesn't surprise me one bit to see Arsene Wenger letting go of the former Servette man. It is thought that the deal could become permanent at the end of the season.
