Charlton Athletic has secured the services of Arsenal striker Yaya Sanogo on loan until the end of the season after his temporary spell with Ajax was cut short on Tuesday (AEDT).

The Frenchman moved to the Eredivisie at the start of the 2015-2016 campaign on a one-year loan deal, but Ajax opted to terminate his spell on deadline day after his underwhelming performances in the first half of the season.

The 23 year-old did not need long to find a new club, though, and will now continue his career in the Championship.

"Charlton are delighted to confirm the deadline-day signing of Arsenal striker Yaya Sanogo on loan until the of the season," a statement on the club's official website read. "The 23 year-old, who has been with the Gunners since 2013, is an FA Cup winner and has played in both the Premier League and the Champions League."

Sanogo becomes the second Arsenal loanee to join Charlton in as many seasons, after the signing of Francis Coquelin in 2014-2015.

Ajax, meanwhile, has recalled promising youngster Richairo Zivkovic from his loan spell with Willem II to fill the void left by Sanogo.
