Chamakh: There is something with Arsenal
-
Bordeaux striker Marouane Chamakh has implied that Arsenal have inquired about his services.
The Morocco international has been at the top of his game with French league leaders Bordeaux, and he has been tipped to make the step to Premier League football next season.
Chamakh has affirmed that joining The Gunners is an option for him, even if he is yet to receive a concrete offer from Arsene Wenger.
The French tactician recently hailed Chamakh as an ‘interesting player’, but said that admiring a player does not automatically mean that he is going to launch a bid.
“Indeed, I am leaving,” Chamakh told Le Parisien. “I hope that the [Bordeaux] directors will be comprehensive. Both parts have to find an agreement so I can leave amicably.
“I am in contact with various clubs, including in England, and I am ready to play for a mid-table side first in order to show myself.
“There is also something with Arsenal, but nothing concrete.”
