West Bromwich Albion fans want to sign Arsenal midfielder Ainsley Maitland-Niles on loan until the end of the season.
The Athletic are reporting that the Baggies are interested in signing the 23-year-old. So far this campaign, he has played just 11 times in the Premier League (Transfermarkt), and a short-term move away would be in his best interests as he looks to secure more playing time ahead of the European Championships.

Mikel Arteta is said to be wary about sending him to a side currently battling relegation, while he also has reservations as to the style of football he would be playing under Sam Allardyce at the Hawthorns.
However, that does not seem to have put the Baggies supporters off wanting him to make the move to the club.
