Chelsea & Man Utd want to sign Arsenal defender?

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