Lille plan move for Francis Coquelin

French side Lille are interested in Arsenal midfielder Francis Coquelin, and want to bring the young Frenchman to the club on loan for the rest of the season.

Coquelin has not played for the Arsenal first team since the 8-2 drubbing to Manchester United earlier in the year, and Wenger is ready to let the player leave on loan back to his homeland.


Championship side Southampton are also apparently considering a move for Coquelin.
