Sagna admits that he could quit Arsenal


France international right back Bacary Sagna told reporters that he could quit the Emirates Stadium at the end of the year. The Arsenal star has been linked with a return to his homeland as PSG have apparently shown some interest in acquring the defender.

Sagna's current deal at the Emirates ends in 2014, but Arsenal already have up and coming Carl Jenkinson at their disposal should they decide to sell Sagna. 


The Frenchman had reportedly been frustrated that the Gunners only offered him a one year deal, as he wanted to sign a three year contract at the club; he also hoped to finish his career with the Reds.


Of course it makes me proud to read PSG are interested. They are a very attractive club," he is quoted as saying in Le 10 Sport. "Personally I’ve not been approached by PSG. I don’t know if they have contacted my agent or if these are rumours.


"At Arsenal, in the dressing room they tease me every day telling me I will leave to play at PSG, but it is speculation. I don’t know what is going to happen.


"I could very well extend my contract here in London but equally I could leave at the end of the season. I only have one year left on my contract. We will see.


"At the moment I am fully focused on Arsenal. I don’t know what will happen this summer. I have to see the directors again regarding an extension to my contract. Monaco would be a new challenge. I don’t close any door to PSG, Monaco or Arsenal."
