Venger ready to give 9 millions for Carlton Cole

Arsenal`s manager Arsen Wenger is ready to make a bid of 9 million pounds for Carlton Cole from West Ham, if Nicklas Bendtner fail in the upcoming fitness tests. He has a groin problem and missed last 14 matches and if he does not play in the next two months it will be very difficult for the gunners to play wit only one striker. Robin van Persie is out for the whole season so Venger wants more power in his attack.
If Carlton Cole  signs he will be able to play in the Champions League.
