Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Frimpong has joined Npower Championship side Charlton Athletic on loan. The 20-year-old has recently returned to fitness following a cruciate knee ligament injury sustained on loan at Wolverhampton Wanderers last season and moves to the Valley until New Year�s Day. Frimpong has made two appearances for the Gunners this term, in the Capital One Cup triumphs over Coventry and Reading. �We�re really happy that he�s coming in to join our squad, and we welcome him to the club,� Charlton manager Chris Powell told the club�s official website. �We�ve had our eye on him for a while, and with the busy Christmas period to come, I felt it was right to make sure that we are covered in all areas. �We hope that does very well for us in the red or black of Charlton.� Frimpong is expected to profit from regular first-team football.
