Birmingham's Larsson insists Arsenal have shown interest

Out-of-contract Birmingham City winger Sebastian Larsson has kept the door ajar to a move to former club Arsenal.

The Swedish international has left St Andrew's after his contract ran out at the end of last season but says a move back to Arsenal, the club he left in 2007, could be on the cards.

"They [Arsenal] have shown some interest. If it flows it can be anything in the end. The next few days will tell," he told Aftonbladet>

"I know there is some kind of interest but I cannot currently say whether something can be done or not. At the moment I do not know how it is going.

"I'm talking to a couple of the Arsenal players still. In particular, (Gael) Clichy," he added.

"Of course I have also talked to my advisor. For every day that passes, I will get closer to a decision but it is also no stress to me. The most important thing is to get a place that is a good next step in my career. It is the goal."
