Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has appeared to suggest that the Gunners will not move to sign midfielder Kim Kallstrom on a permanent basis.

Kallstrom joined Arsenal on loan from Spartak Moscow in January, signing for the club despite being injured with a back problem.




Wenger has praised the Swedish international's attitude, but only named him on the bench in today's 1-0 win over West Brom, bringing the midfielder on in the 63rd minute.

Asked post-match about Kallstrom's future, Wenger said via his club's site: "He is on loan, so he belongs to Moscow and will go back to Moscow."
