Swedish midfielder Kim Kallstrom has arrived at Arsenal’s training complex to undergo a medical and finalise a short-term loan deal to the Premier League leaders.
The Gunners have moved quickly to secure backup for the crippled Aaron Ramsey, with Wenger revealing today that the Welsh interantional is set to be out for at least six weeks.
Kallstrom, 31, is a central midfielder, able to play in either defensive or more advanced positions. He has earned 108 caps for Sweden, scoring 16 goals.
