Bacary Sagna: My future is at Centre-back

Bacary Sagna: 'My future is at Centre-back'

14 September 2013 - 00:35

Arsenal right-back Bacary Sagna has revealed of his plans to switch to the central defensive role as he moves to the latter stages of his career.

  • Chido Obi to leave Man Utd on loan
  • Chelsea star suffers hamstring injury on international duty
  • The 30-year-old French International, who joined the Gunners in 2007, typically plys his trade as a right-back but has been occasionally asked to play at the centre of defence.   

    He told the club's official website: "Even at 30 I still have time to learn another position and I'm looking forward to it.

    "Why not [play there in future]? I'm getting old and at right back you need to put in a lot more effort. I don't know how long I can do that to my maximum so maybe one day I will be able to play centre back."
