Schalke keen on Arsenal utility man

|

Francis CoquelinArsenal may offload Francis Coquelin this summer, reports the Daily Express.

The 22-year-old French midfielder is out-of-favour at The Emirates under Arsene Wenger and has played in cup competitions rather than in the Premier League.

And it now appears the France Under-21 international’s time at Arsenal is finally up.

Despite having two more years left to run on his existing deal at The Emirates, Coquelin may well look to secure a permanent move away from Arsenal rather than a temporary one as he has dropped down the pecking order at the club in recent times.

Schalke are reportedly keen on the defensive midfielder although no official bid has been tabled for him yet.

Coquelin joined The Gunners in 2008 after an impressive trial and has since made a total of 41 appearances in all competitions. During this time, he was loaned out to Lorient where gained first-team experience.
