Arsenal defender Djourou ready for permanent move

Arsenal defender Johan Djourou is open to staying in Germany with Hannover 96 at the end of the season. His current loan deal does not have an option to let the player leave the club permanently once his loan deal ends.

The Swiss international is however ready to take a permanent move away from Arsenal should an offer from Hannover present itself.


"Arsenal did not want to include a buy option," he said.

"But those things don't worry me right now. I have to perform first, to make sure Hannover want to buy me.

"As a team we have the quality to reach the Champions League.

"Everything has to work out great and we all have to stay fit. It is a high goal, but you need to have them in sport."
