Arsene Wenger sends Mavididi to Charlton after failed Preston loan

Arsenal have made their first transfer business of 2018, agreeing a deal with Charlton Athletic for their 19-year-old English striker.

According to London News Online, Arsenal’s Stephy Mavididi cut his loan spell short with Preston North End, and will join the Addicks for the rest of the campaign.

The teenager made just three league starts during his time with the Lancashire club, and returns to Charlton where he played five times last season.

Stephy Mavididi played for Charlton on loan last season, before a hamstring injury forced him back to Arsenal.
