Chuks coming back to Crewe until January

Steve Davis has this morning confirmed that the club have come to an agreement with Arsenal in relation to taking Chuks Aneke on a six-month loan deal. Aneke was a huge success on loan with Crewe Alexandra last season scoring 8 goals in his 38 appearances.

Aneke will train with his parent club this morning before heading to the North West to team up with his former team-mates for the first game of the season. If Crewe receive confirmation in time from the Premier League and the Football League, the 20 year-old will be eligible to face Rotherham United tomorrow.

Steve Davis told the club’s official web-site: “We have managed to reach an agreement with Arsenal over Chuks and we are going to sign him on a six-month loan until January.

“We know the talent he has and he will be a good addition to the squad. I initially saw the ability he had and asked the supporters to have patience with him. They did that and in the end we saw what a huge talent he is.

 “Chuks is a very creative player, who can play that killer pass behind centre-halves and full-backs. He is a big, strong lad and has two great feet. We are absolutely delighted to have him back. He made his wish to come back here and we can only thank Arsenal for all their help.”
