Arsenal youngster Coquelin flattered by Lille interest

Arsenal midfielder Francis Coquelin is flattered to be linked with Lille.

Lille are eyeing the young Frenchman for the January market.

"I have not had direct contact with them, but it's flattering. LOSC is a very big club," he told L'Equipe. "For now, the transfer window is not open and I am focused on Arsenal, but when there really is interest, we'll see what happens.

"In my heart, I know I can do something in this Arsenal team! But to be the best, I need regular matches."
