Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini has admitted that a deal for Arsenal striker Joel Campbell is off.
Zamparini has been in London this week.
Zamparini explained in an interview with Radio Sportiva : “I’m in London now, I tried to close it [the deal] last week,”.
“Right now it’s impossible, I only have one non-EU slot in the squad, and I opted for the Serbian, Djurdjevic.
“Besides, I’m not in the habit of getting players from clubs like Arsenal. I’m a President who looks for less well-known players, from clubs like Cremonese or Avellino.”
