It will be an emotional day at the Emirates as Arsenal and Everton meet for the first time since the death of Kevin Campbell. The beloved striker played for Leyton Orient, city of leicesterNottingham Forest, Trabzonspor, West Bromwich Albion and Cardiff City, but he is best remembered for his spells with the Gunners and the Toffees, for whom he scored 59 and 39 goals respectively. Campbell is celebrated on a banner outside the stadium…
