Saint-Etienne centre-back Loic Perrin has revealed that Arsenal has been in contact with his agent over a potential switch to the Emirates during the winter transfer window.
The Gunners boss Arsene Wenger had dismissed claims that the club were in pursuit of the 29-year-old defender in January.
However, Perrin has now insisted that the North London outfit held talks with his agent regarding the possible move.
"I think I was on a shortlist but not at the top, apparently! A move in the [January] transfer window? It's always complicated but it's hard to deny Arsenal." He said.
"I have always said that, if I had to leave ASSE one day, it would be for a bigger club to play in the Champions League. A club like Arsenal. I do not think many players in Ligue 1 would refuse them."
