Laurent Koscielny
Arsenal have agreed a deal to sell captain Laurent Koscielny to Ligue 1 club Bordeaux for €5million (£4.6m).
Arsenal head coach, Unai Emery tried on numerous occasions to convince Koscielny to stay at the club, but sources in France say the 33-year-old has arrived at Bordeaux for a medical.

Koscielny wanted to leave on a free transfer and thought he would be allowed after nine years of service, something Arsenal refused to entertain.
