Two of Arsenal's most promising youngsters have announced where they hope their future will lie. Italian striker Arturo Lupoli (left) will return to his home country to join Fiorentina, as his current contract at Arsenal runs out in the summer. Lupoli has been on loan at Derby this season and has helped them climb up to 2nd in the Championship. It is a shame to lose him as in the reserves and Carling Cup games which fans may have seen, the Italian has looked good. In 2004 he netted two against Everton in the Carling Cup, showing the huge potential that he possesses. Defrby's promotion rivals, Birmingham also have an Arsenal loanee on their books. Danish striker, Nicklas Bendtner has revealed that he intends to stay with The Gunners when he returns from his loan. This is good news as Bendtner is as good if not better than Lupoli, so Arsene Wenger will have an army of strikers next season, including: Henry, Van Persie, Adebayor, Bendtner, Walcott, Aliadiere and Baptista as well if his move becomes permanent. Bendtner quoted: "This is a fantastic experience for me, but I'm an Arsenal player, it is still my ambition to break into the Arsenal team and I hope to do that next season. "I believe I could play in this Arsenal team, otherwise I wouldn't be going back. It's going to be tough, because there are some great strikers at the club, but I can compete for a place."
