Football news reports show that following the sale of West Ham United midfielder Scott Parker to Tottenham Hotspur, the London based Championship side have completed the signing of Arsenal youngster Henri Lansbury.
Lansbury has been with the North London side since joining the club as a youth but has so far failed to break through into the starting line up under manager Arsene Wenger.
The 20 year old midfielder made an appearance for the club as a substiture during the clubs 8-2 defeat at the hands of champions Manchester United and later that night revealed that he knew that he should be included into the Arsenal starting line up more frequently, a bold claim but one in which the youngster believes to be correct.
With Parker now a Spurs player, Championship side West Ham have moved to sign Lansbury from Arsenal on a season long loan deal that will see the young central midfielder see out the remainder of this season with West Ham, offering him valuable first team experience.
Lansbury is no stranger to loan deals and has so far played for Scunthorpe United, Watford and Norwich City while on loan from the North London club, helping Norwich to achieve promotion to the Premier League last season.
With Wenger looking to add to his squad before the 11pm deadline tonight, he has told the midfielder that he does not believe that he will be able to offer him the amount of first team football that he desires this season, sparking the decision to accept the move to West Ham.
